Question '93 Non-Cali Unlimeted ECU and '93 Cali car

I going to purchase a non-cali Pettit unlimited ECU (93) and I have a '93 Cali, will this work? What if any are the possible problems.

I will eventually move up to a PFC but not until I have enough money to upgrade turbos, maybe street port (when engine goes), injectors, fuel pump, IC, yada-yada-yada... but until then I'll just run with my catback, downpipe, soon-to-be intake (adam_c, cuz I'm a cheap bastard too), and MBC.

Thanks

Victor

I thought that only happened if you used a '93 ECU on a '94+ car?

Thanks for the response scratch!

i thought that cali cars had egr sensors on them. no sensor with cali ecu = cel the other way should be ok. they are both standards right?

I doubt the non-California one will even care. If it's an issue, disconnect the EGR connector (blue).

the only difference should be the egr sensor. disconnect the connector (behind the air pump,blue) and all should be good. i just did a complete cali to non cali engine swap and that was the only difference i could find
