Questions about manual swap with power fc

I have a 93 fd rx7 that was manual swapped , everything runs fine but it has a automatic harness still and was wondering how I would use a power fc on this setup . Would it be better to swap the harness out for a manual one , or is it easier to buy the banzai racing adapter . The car runs fine as is and everything works electronically but I want to do an air pump delete and also run a downpipe and mid pipe . TIA

there is no overlap between the power fc and the now manual set up. electrically, there is no difference as it relates to the power fc whether the car WAS or IS manual. all that matters is the auto box is no longer present. you will simply install the power fc. there are no further accommodations that need to be made.

Manual harness connects to the power fc I know that much what about the dash now ? Still the same or would I need to de-pin something. Sorry I’m just trying to make sure I get this right . I’m still running the auto dash with the PRNDL so won’t I have to make sure it stays in neutral on the dash to make sure it starts up ?
