the plug is for the neutral safety switch, so you cant start the car unless the pedal is down. and yeah, you need the manual ecu. not sure about the wiring though.

You might want to change the whole engine bay wiring harnes to avoid cutttin any wires to avoid future problems.

I !ASUME! that running your stock ecu will work with a manual tranny, BUT you will get codes from the ecu about the tranny(dough) and your engine MIGHT be running in safe mode if there is such a thing on hondas...

on the dpfi ill bet it sucks, but on my old mpfi d15, it felt about the same, actually, it felt like the power delivery was a lot smoother. i dunno if that meant faster, but i solved that little problem.
