:wary Why don't you focus on what's tried and true. What mods do you have done to your car already? Just what you have listen in your sig? How does this make you need to install an engine management system?

He's the mistaken one. As far as 2gnt ECU's, Howell makes a 97 MTX ecu ONLY.

A neon ECU IS NOT THE SAME.
