Default 97 318ti to 99 328i wiring

Hello all. I've been browsing the site for the last 2hrs gathering information on this swap. the motor is already in the car, ready to go, but I am a bit confused on the wiring needed. I have the booklet from Jim Leach, but his section on wiring is very vague and his diagram wasn't very helpful.

I am basically in need of the pinouts of the x20 and x6031 for both cars. I have found similar stuff, but nothing being exactly what I need.

I did find a user who posted the x20 pinout for 1996 328i:
Quote:
1.EMPTY
2.EMPTY
3.A/C [dual temp switch/IHKA36 to DME pin62(activate valve)]
4.A/C on [DME pin74(activ a/c compressor to compressor relay pin5)] [diag pin9]
5.A/C PRESSURE [DME pin16 to pressure switch]
6.A/C ON SIGNAL [DME pin19]
7.EWS II [DME pin18 (drv. away signal) to EWS pin4
8.EXHAUST FLOP [DME pin84]
9.ABS/ASC [DME pin15 to ABS/ASC]
10. REVERSE LIGHT
11.To instrument cluster pin 17 (eng. temperature)
12.To instrument cluster pin 18 (eng. temperature)
13.FUEL PUMP to fuse F18
14.EMPTY
15.STARTER
16.DIAGNOSTIC RxD
17.DIAGNOSTIC TxD
18.EWS II [from EWS pin1 to starter]
19.DIAGNOSTC pin7?
20.From DME pin36(crank rpm ) to EWS/ABS/Instrument cluster pin20
21.DME pin40?
22.IGNITION F26 to oil level/oxygen sensor/rev light+
23.OIL PRESSURE
24.FUEL COMSUMPTION
25.BATTERY CHARGING
but I can't find the 97 318ti side. The x6031 looks the same?? No re-pinning needed for that one? Help on exactly what needs to be changed would be VERY useful.

Thanks,
Kevin

Your title says '87 318i, did you mean '97 318ti? If so, OBDII to OBDII should be plug and play.

by the way, I was wondering why I kept ending up with VERY similar wiring pinouts between the two after comparing diagrams.
