My 96 was originally an automatic car, and since the M6 swap we've had occasional tuning troubles with getting the car to idle correctly... When slowing for a light and coasting or even sitting still, the rpms are slow to fall and sometimes hang at 2000rpm and 1500rpm. It will also be idling fine one moment then suddenly stumble and try to stall. PCMforless fixed it the first time, then I broke the powerdyne and bought the procharger. The idle problem came back on the first startup with the new blower installed. I went and had it dyno tuned and then we did some driveability tuning to try and fix the idle. It took several tries and it is 90% better now... Both tuners that worked on the car recommended swaping to a PCM with base programming for a factory 6spd car(6sp VIN #).
I've always heard that the 95 OBD 1 pcm was better suited for aftermarket mods than the 96-97 pcms.
My questions:
Is it worth it to swap to a 95 PCM instead of swapin to another 96pcm with a M6 vin number?
If its really that much better, can I keep my TCS/ASR system? Do I need to swap wiring harnesses also?
I already modded my stock '96 A4 harness to work with the M6.
