if you get an EL police ECU it will work, but an XR6 one will be just as good.

It sort of defeats the purpose of fitting an XR6/Police ECU a bit, but it will still work, and you may still get some advantage.

Another option is the EL Ghia ECU as it also has the Tickford mapping.

Do you know if you have a factory gas ECU? The tickford ECU has more advanced ignition mapping compared to a std ecu, but the gas ECU is better again.

I have been running the Ghia ECU in my car with LPG for well over 2 years now.

Cheers
