Hi all, I'm new to the forum, someone on saxosportsclub mentioned the forum, so i thought i'd drop by!

Just looking for some help really...
I have a 2000 'W' Saxo Furio (1.4i).
The car originally had the early silvertop engine, however there was major problems with it.
I've now changed it for a Late Silvertop Engine from an 'X' Reg Saxo Furio, and have a list of problems now!

First of all - I'm running 2 Cats, due to my existing one being under the car, and the new one being on the manifold - Basically i need a De-Cat / Standard pipe to do away with the Cat under the car - I Don't have much money, so the cheaper the better. Any ideas where i can get one from?

Next - In order to change the Loom and ECU, i need the old loom out - All done, and i have both looms here infront of me.
Its all very well that they will go in, right upto the last Large Round connector.
The old loom, has a large round connector, with 18 wires.
The New loom, has a large round connector (Different to the old one), again with 18 wires, however it has a smaller connector next to it, with 5 wires.

Basically, i need to re-wire the old plug, onto the new loom if that makes sense? Need to have the new loom on the engine, as various sensors are different and in different places, and the car was running very oddly!
Pics of the connectors attatched.

Any help / Wiring diagrams for these plugs, or even the entire loom, would be much appreciated - the better labelled the better though, they're confusing things aren't they!

Need the car back on the road ASAP, so much appreciated!
Thanks
David

Someone must have done this conversion before surely?
Its an older silvertop to a newer silvertop...
De-Cat pipe for the middle is on the way.
Just don't know what to do - Just about to fit the old loom back, so i can fit the de-cat pipe when thats here, and see how it goes, but i can't see it going right... any ideas?
Thanks
David

i remember before someone had two cats on there car and im sure they said the pipe was almost glowing becuase of the back pressure or something, could be dangerous

The wires have numbers on them, although on the plug in the last pic you have to cut off the rubber surround to be able to see them. easiest thing to do (bar buying a new loom) would be to chop both plugs off then match the numbers on the new loom to the ones on the old plug (if that makes sense).
