I believe you have to swap the TPS as one controls transmission shifts at a given RPM while the other one does not have to 'cause you do it :wink: . Don't quote me on that though, as I'm not sure.

Computer and harness should be fine as they are.
The pedal and shifter assembly need to be swapped out, but that's a given.

I'm probably missing something else...
