They look very similar but the wire gauge is larger for the gen 2 cables. The problem with the earlier ones was an intermittent connection. Very hard to test with a multi-meter.

One other thing, the SC system just starts making boost at around 3K rpm, so below that it is a NA engine.

You need to let the engine warm up before you flog it. The oil will be thick and the oil pressure will be extremely high if you rev it hard while cool. I always get the oil temp up to at least 140 before I start to have some fun. Your engine will thank you.
