Okay I already know a few things:

The manual base fuel pressure is different from an auto, the injector sizes are also different. The fuel maps are also different. Also Ive read that the auto ecu pulls timing during shifts where as the manual ecu wont/doesnt, also Ive herd that the auto ecu compensates for load applied to the engine when shifting between park and drive in which the manual ecu doesn't..

I want to know everything before i attempt to do this ecu swap, I already have a 5 speed fuel rail with 450's an 5 speed eprom ecu. but I need more info before i subject my car to anything that's not stock.

Were can i find the information i need to feel comfortable about all the differences? And what else do i need to know ?

Ive seached and can't find all the info I need .
 
You're going to have problems more or less no matter what, the intake not being the same as a turbo car as well as the huge exhaust difference is gonna do odd things to the car. I'd wonder if your FPR isnt bad, maybe if you have a way to put a gauge on it to make sure its working right.

I ran around with my wastegate flapper disconnected for a few days on my car and it ran fine, not super super rich but decent.

im just wondering if haveing my car setup for a turbo already ie, knock sensor, 390cc injectors with resistor pac, bcs,fpr(assuming its the same) and fp solenoid ,and im guiessing they never swapped the fuel pump. wouldnt that cause me to run rich cause my nt ecu thinks i have 240cc injectorss high impendence so the fuel trims would be wayy off right? and wouldnt the ecu just assume im in vaccume and not boosting and just make my car run like a normal non gas eating machine? like i get only 200 (km <--- thats terrible ) a tank im running super bee rich here, ive been reading that a person whom also had a turbo delete ran there car fine with a turbo ecu with all the sensor n sh!@ , lets just say i gotta give the car gas so it doesnt die after it starts up (390cc injectors causeing that due to the nt ecu)?

thanks for the reply btw!
