I have run it both ways, didn't see any difference and the check engine light did not come up once.
What is your transmission doing that makes you think it is malfunctioning?
Did you do the wiring yourself or did you have someone else do it?

i did not do any wiring on trany most of the plugs from the the auto trany fit the 5 speed it just that auto trany has more plugs than the 5 speed the and check engine light is on i took it 2 get it check out and the code state tha the transmision is malfunctionin

you need a 5 speed ecu ... the ecu you are using now is for an automatic so it is sending a signal to all of the sensors for an automatic trans and it is not getting a signal back there for it thinks there is somthing the matter get the ecu and you have to drive it for a lil while once you get it so it can run all of its ecu test, then it should pass safty and emissions if no emissions slap it in and get it tested
