A standalone harness is a custom harness with better sensors with standalone ECU & fuse box to draw out your engine’s capabilities after tuning. An OEM+ restoration harness is direct replacement compared to the factory harness but with better wires, looms, and replicated parts that are no longer available from Porsche.
-
We mainly focus on Motec, Emtron, Haltech, and MaxxECU. However, if there is another aftermarket ECU that you are interested in, please contact us.
-
Over the years wiring becomes dry and brittle due to extreme temperature changes and aging. These broken or split wires are a real fire hazard and should be changed during a restoration, or just as a safety precaution.
The wiring can have no visible damage but will be brittle when bent. Therefore, we always suggest being safe now instead of sorry later. -
Technica RaceWire offers free estimates, we encourage you to send us your old harness. We will look at it and inform you with a quote before we begin any work. If we cannot get together on a price or if you decide to have the work done, we will return the old harness to you at your expense. (worldwide)
Make sure your harness is well packed, Technica RaceWire cannot be held responsible for any damage by incorrect packaging. -
Yes, in some cases that’s possible, in such cases we will check and measure the condition of each wire, also all wire terminals will be replaced, and if required the braiding or tape will be renewed. The harness will be cleaned from oil and grease. Please note that such a harness will never match the look of a completely new one.
-
Please contact us before taking it out, but for the most common types of Porsche (356, 911, 912, 944) no labeling will be required.
-
Everything will be delivered new, only in some cases connectors need to be re-used (please contact us for details)
-
When we receive a harness that we have not build in the past we will start to measure each wire separately. The reason we require our customer to send the original harness is that the car’s schematic diagram does not provide information on length, types of terminals or connectors. By doing this we can ensure that you will receive an exact replica of the length & connectors of the original harness. A 69> type harness has a lot more special connectors, therefore we prefer receiving those harnesses completely.
-
Yes that’s possible, but we mainly work with PDMs, Bussmanns, and GEP Fusebox.

TXL Cross-Link wire is constructed with bare copper, a stranded wire that meets or exceeds SAE J1128, Ford M1L-123A, and Chrylser MS-8288 requirements. The 60 V DC (25 V AC) wire is rated to work optimally between extreme temperatures of -40°C to 125°C (-40°F to 257°F) and is available in a variety of colors and sizes, from 22-8 gauge. TXL wire is a perfect lower-cost alternative to Tefzel wire.
Tefzel Wire (M22759/32) has all the same great attributes as the M22759/16 wire except for its insulation, which is (XLETFE) crosslinked Tefzel. This allows for less insulation, resulting in a smaller O.D and lighter weight. In addition, since this wire is crosslinked, the color profiles can be more of a pastel color palette than the relatively bright, vibrant colors.
Motorsport Battery Cable is a dual jacketed motorsport battery cable designed for motorsport applications where maximum flexibility and resistance to abrasion heat and chemical resistance are required.
