The only way to change everything over to the FOX EEC is to either use a Pro-M PIH or swap the harness out. However, I believe that the 94/95 EEC's are actually better than anyone gives them credit for. The timing curves are a little screwy compared to the FOX units but I haven't found that to be a big enough problem to change to that computer in my car yet.

get the tweecer...94-95 computers are have a bad rap, but supposedly ford inputted a weak "load" into them because fox bodies tore up trannys or something like that. So to limit service on them, the sn95s got this weaker "load" (pulled timing during shifts, etc)

with a tweecer you can change timing, a/f ratios, etc.....you can get one for about $400

I haven't use the tweecer, just read about it and heard several people say they work great.

The tweecer piggybacks the ECU via a laptop computer....Mustang tuning does seem like its complicated, but more and more people seem to be going with tweecer cuz you have the capability to retune with each mod. Go to mustangtuning.com if you are serious....
