I may have found the answer to the immobilizer and the manual vs, auto issues.
There is an Ebay seller that I've had some recent contact with. She has over 750 positive feedback.
anyways, Brook, says that she can reprogram any of the ecu's to no longer require the immobilizer systems if the ECU's previously required them. I streatched that idea a lil further and asked if she could reprogram them from auto to manual, and I havnt yet gotten a responce. We'll see!

If so, than it wouldnt matter what ECU you find, she could then reprogram them to be manual, w/ or w/o the immobilizer. Means no more tricking the auto ECU.

We'll see how it turns out when I get my ECU back. Formerly a manual w/ immilizer.
