It is because of some coding inside the ECU are amend for auto transmission to read it.The engine still can running but the true performance of manual engine you will not get it for 100%.You will suffer the throttle proggresion when idle and so on when shift the gear....But it not too much...you will not feel it at the earlier stage,but you will feel it soon....sorry if i mistake about this....just my 2 cent.cheers
Even the wiring not need to be change...?nope...
nothing will effect the engine running...
in fact...1.6 Autobox have its own ecu to run logic-processing (proton utilizing mitsu invecs tech)...
thus when removing the autobox and replaced with manual,the gearbox's ECU will be removed along with other autobox parts....and none will giving negative impact to the engine running with new manual box....
:hmmmm:
p/s:sorry for gali old thread but....since like the cases hanging around so i just gatal tangan to post here
