Hey everyone,

Just a quick question. I am converting a speed desity car to MAF. Got everything else except computer the only one i can find is from a automatic and the car is a five speed. does it matter the eec you get whether it is for a 5 speed or automatic?

Thanks

I think a auto ECM into a manual car is ok, I think you have problems when you try to run a auto car off a manual ECM.

I don't have an answer about the ecm...but I have been thinking about doing the same swap to my 88. What are the horsepower advantages to this upgrade.

The auto computer is fine in a manual car. You might need to mess with the transmission harness a little, though.
