I did the MT swap on my 97 Legacy today. Everything went good and it runs great. But the mileage seems to have dropped alot. On an hour drive tonight I averaged about 15mpg.
For wiring all I've done is to splice the wires for the starter, and wire in the reverse light switch. I checked Josh's write up for Gen 1 Legs, and it says to cut pin 20 on the ECU connector. According to the FSM's for 97, pin 20 of the ECU harness goes to the TPS and the CTS, so I doubt that's the one I want to cut.
I also now have the ABS light on. The FSM's show an input to the ABS computer from the TCU. Any idea if I need to ground this or supply a voltage?
