You can use the same ECU, the only difference between manual and auto is that the autos had a TCU, but the ECU is exactly the same for the EJ22T

You may need to mess with the positive leads for the cam & crank sensors....depending on what wiring harness you are using.

IIRC, one must use an EJ22T ECU since they are different.
