neither. Keep the LS ecu. The ecu has nothing to do with your gear ratios.

If you change to one of those other ecu's, your check engine light will be on and the ecu will be in limp mode. There is no power to gain there. Plus your rev limit will be raised, and your LS won't be able to handle it if you over rev.

But at the moment I have an automatic. I would be swapping it to 5 spd. Should I get an LS 5spd ecu?

Cool thanks. Since I already have this post and I have search around for the list of parts I need for an auto/5spd swap lemme setup the list I have and I wanna know if im missing anything. thanks

1.Tranny w/ slave cylinder
2.ECU
3.Shift Linkage
4.Shifter
5. Master Cylinder
6.5spd Pedals
7.All the lines
8. Wiring (reverse lights ect. Start with clutch depressed ect)
9. All the interior plastic
10. 5spd tranny mounts

Heres the list of things that i heard I need but not really sure if I really do need it or not. I dont understand why I would need these things.

1. 5spd Distributer
2. 5spd manifold

Anyone wanna verify or let me know if I missed anything. Im sure I have.
