    the car will never run right unless you get the proper manual ecu and engine bay wiring loom because the ecu does not know how fast the car is going wont idle right will get terrible fuel econemy and myn even threw a few flames out the exhaust when i was using my auto ecu when slowing from high revs..

    Sell the, 'special' ECU and buy a genuine manual one. Might lose a few $ but you won't have the ECU issues your bound to have with the 'special' one. (whether that be wiring it up or how it performs)

    yeah get proper ecu i did the conversion with a manual loom but in all the confusion of wanting to take it for a spin once it was all bolted up i plugged in the auto ecu it stalled a few times. had pretty crappy power was over all pretty shit lol...soon as i got the manual ecu into it. was all good
