All in all, it was a really large undertaking for me, and I am used to doing complicated work. It is amazing what a difference the new harness made. Now it is very powerful and very smooth, like a 400E should be. Total cost: $75.00

My hat is off to you my friend!!! THAT is indeed a huge undertaking for any DIY'er - no matter what anybody says
. Good job!
Yeah, I'm sure the car will perform better and will be more reponsive and no infrequent misfiring and such.
I will likely need to do a throttle actuator rebuild/replacement at some point as well. But, one thing at a time..
