I'll be doing this swap in the near future. Just waiting on the parts to get here.
I'll be using the TII UIM, LIM, and exhaust mani.. with stock S4 turbo.. all going into my 87NA with less than 40k on it with 120+ on both rotors all 3 faces...
Will it be at all possible to use my NA throttle cables? Can I put my NA TPS on the TII throttlebody? What other electrical gremlins should I worry about? I'll be using the NA harness and CPU with an SAFC. Will I need to switch out my AFM or any other electrical components for the SAFC? Boost/Pressure sensor?

Nope, can't use the N/A cable. You can swap the TPS if you have the actual bracket that holds them.
Keep all of your electronics the same as your ECU (though I'd suggest going over to a TII setup)

I already bought a t2 trany, driveshaft and differential with rear axels.

Bummer, don't know if the TB has a throttle cable attached to it. Guess I better cross my fingers. So AFM, Boost Sensor, and TPS all stay the same. Is the oil filler pipe going to end up being in the way? Are the BAC's interchangeable?
Sorry going through the book and comparing the differences between the engines. Just looks like a few minor things might be a pain in my *** by using the TII mani's on the NA block.
Most of the swaps and write-ups fail to mention the little things that kill you in the long run. Electronics usually end up being the big one because everyone goes a different route.
I saw in Aaron's write up that he went into the oil pan with his oil return line. Was that ever proven to be a bad idea because there was no gravity pull? It would be nice if some of the links to other writeups made it into the FAQ, instead of just Aaron's.

Not sure what your definition of "break" is but my NA driveshaft got totally fubarred at the U-Joint with very little to no power above stock levels.

That is what I did.

As for more write ups...If someone puts together a good list of them, I'll add it to the FAQ.
