Well im getting ready to do a 5 spd swap in my car, i already put the 01 dek motor in and is working well, however i want a m/t. I have the technosquare ecu but since the auto and manual ecus are different i guess ill have to change unless i want to see the o/d light for the rest of my life. Is there anyway i can transfer my geforce fuel maps and stuff over to the new computer ? Thats really my only concern. Any input is appreciated thanks.

 

If all you're worried about is fuel maps, get an AFC.

 

well im not really sure what was advanced in the technosquare ecu. Im guessing just fuel maps. Is ther anything else

 

Probably timing also.

Live with the O/D light...

 

can i take out the od light ?

 

Of course, take the dash off and pull it out.

 

one last thing since the autos have a electronic motor mount that increases the stiffnes. Since i have to change it will my ecu throw a code for that if i keep the auto ecu ?

 

Nope........

 

I'm not positive, but I think I remember taking out the TCM, and my tranny codes never showed up again.. This is with an auto ECU and 5spd trans.

 

really the tcm is located underneath the radio correct above or below the bcm ?

 

It was under the radio. It was a blackish box.


But I think I remember getting some communication code afterwards... But no tranny codes.

 

while we kinda on the subject. swapin from auto to 5spd, do u have to run the same year ecu? for example, can an auto 98 swaping to a 5spd run on a 96 5spd ecu or it has to be a 98 5spd ecu ?

 

Well you have to tinker with it a little for it to work across different years and you may show a code or two. Sticking with the same year is best.

 

Since you have the TS ECU, I would just sell it for whatever you can get and prepare to invest in e-Manage Ultimate.
