Default turbo ecu, la, 2, 3

Is there really any difference between the 87-88 turbo coupe ecu often used in the 2.3t swap? Besides auto or manual transmission? I'm tryin to find one an wasn't sure if one was really better than another, thanks.Also if you happen to have one to get rid of let me know.

The LA3 is definitely the most common. I have been told that it has slightly more aggressive timing and fuel tables since it came in the higher power 5 speed cars.

If you use the factory boost solenoid the la2 will give full boost in 1st and 2nd gear with 5spd.3rd to 5th gives wast gate boost.La3 gives full bost full time.If using a gillis valve no change.
