nope, EL runs a dizzy while the EF has a coil so she wont work. EF ecu will be fine with a cam change.

what do you meen by no results?? like it will not do anything (eg) not pick up a lump at idle nothing, Ive never heard of them doing it did you reset the computer after you put the cam in? it will take time for the ECU to adjust to the cam, mine took a little while for my R6 to settle in.

I think people talk up there cams a bit to much compared to what they really do.

EL ECU connector is not going to fit in an EF harness. You will need to change that loom and the engine loom + add in the dissy.
