Your existing wiring harness will work.
The LS2 has the same harness as a 5.3?
no but you can use your existing wiring harness
Is the ls2 DBW?
Yes, the LS2 is DBW. I am not sure about the wiring harness. You shouldn't need a completely new one, just some connectors need to be modified. You might wanna try and get a 90mm cable style TB for it so you don;t have to deal with swithing from cable style to DBW...
are you gonna be putting the turbo on the next engine you get?
yea the turbo is going on the ls2

I think you'll have to rework the knock sensors, the ls2 block cam with cylinder deactivation stuff and has KS on the side of the block.
sounds like a neat swap!
