Just a quick question. My automatic just went out and need to get my car up asap. I'm seriously considering a manual swap rather than replacing the auto but have a question about ecu compatibility.. . IIRC I can still use my auto ECU with a manual, just with a check engine light. Is that correct? And is there any other complications I need to be aware of ECU wise?

95 Yellow T5-R

Built engine, 18t, IPD Tune, Rip, nitrous, full suspension, blah blah

99 S70 AWD

Ipd tune, custom exhaust, IPD TCV, HD coil packs, still slow...
