I am converting a BA Engine to a turbo. Now I'm going to put F6 Turbo gear onto it, and a 6 speed manual transmission. It will get an atomic rebuild kit. Then its going into my BF MKII Ute. Now to my thinking would a BA MKII TURBO PCM programmed for a 6 Speed transmission do the job? or would I have to get a BF MKII TURBO PCM? and if I did that would it work with the BA motor. Any help would be really appreciated as this is really hard to figure out haha.

Still at a loss as to which one to use though haha Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48848-which-ecu-to-use/#findComment-722938 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the BA motor with the BF PCM work the VCT the same as the BF, even though its a BA motor it would have the BF PCM and programming? Obviously it would have to be a BF loom as well.
