I have an ipad mini Wi-Fi, and the digitizer connector on the logic board is missing most of the pins. I am wondering if i must buy a logic board specific to the mini wifi or if i can upgrade to the mini 2 Wi-Fi logic board. Thanks

No the mini 2 Retina logic board will not work within a mini housing. The circuitry, LCD and connectors are different. You could upgrade the memory by going to a higher capacity logic board but it will have to be an iPad mini board.
