u can use many many combos but yes u can leave ur stock k8 ecu in the car and switch out the VAF to a kl-02 from a ford probe,mx6,626 just an in my opinion ive tried all ecu available and im most happy with the K8 ECU and DE VAF the high end power is just nicer i find.. alsso the DE ECU with DE VAF is my 2nd fav even on a ZE

tranny works. all your mounts work with the ze. Its pretty much like putting the same engine in.
