Aftermarket ECM should accept a variety of inputs for ignition, and accordingly instructions for it will tell you which ECM feed to use, it may need re setting on compy to enable different output config, ask ECM maker for advice.

you may need to short out the supressor that is used on the std setup - it is located near the coil - ans is screwed to the inner wing - it has just t woies to to - undo the multiplug and short out the wires inside.
