Noone really seems to know... Will it work? Don't really see why not, but about the EGR: Will there be a Check Engine Light or not? Thanks

i can only see 2 things. the egr will matter if the ecu is federal or calif. emissions calibrated. cali cars have a electric sensor on them that the federal cars dont. that might set a code. i dont think the air bag is tied into it in any way but the 94 have 2. their is a jumper you need to change and solder if the ecu was from an auto.

happy holidays

Thanks for the info. It's from a manual so the real concern is the EGR.. Never heard of anyone using the 93 ECU in a 94.. The CEL is what we are trying to figure out.

What the hell are you doing with a stock ECU?

Actually, he asked that question for me. I have a 94 fd and i'm planing on getting a Pettit unlimited ecu which is from a 93. So we were wandering if the check engine light would come on or not.

Sorry I disappeared... Yeah. The ECU is for boostinFD. He has a 94 FD and was curious if the 93 Petit computer will work, and if it will throw a constant CEL due to the EGR dirrerence..
