Default Need help with 2.3 swap mustang swap

The person i had do the wiring for the swap didnt know what the hell he was doing. So he totally took out the wring harness and tryed to use the wrong harness. Has anyone done this swap before and if you have i need some help with the ignition wiring. Ive looked at places like stinger performance but i still need some wisual help for this part of the swap. Where do i splice in the ignition wiring to the main harness and how is it supposed to look. I need it running by next so any help would be appriciated. I have all the wiring done except the ignition wiring.

p.s anyone have a holset turbo for sale?

What kind of ignition are you running, stock? I'm assuming this is supposed to go into a Foxbody?

I can get you squared away no problem, shoot me a PM.
