No it won't work. The EL has a distributor ignition system, and the EF has a coil pack.

i noticed a def improvement in mine with an EF XR ECU over the stock ECU - gave me my idle back, better response with the more aggressive shift points - so def worth it if you've got a few mods! ;)

Youv'e seen the ECU on ebay right?
It won't fit anything except for EL which runs a distributor not a coilpack. if you can get an EF XR6 ECU then its worthwhile if you don't pay too much. You could of course get a Chiptorque for $600 too brand new and its custom programmable. |

Are chiptorques only $600? Far out. Worth the change?

although i *think* there are slight differences between the XR & Ghia ECU, although they are both Tickford ones :-S
