We have a 96 Cobra with the 2 bank ecu that has minimal OBD2 flash support and datalogging is erratic at best even with QH. Stock bottom end and B heads. This car is not going to have crazy mods and will remain mostly as Ford built it. EGR/Secondary air injection is gone, IMRC is on and bench tested ok.

The only option I have found that appears to reliably support the 2 bank ecu is SCT PRP and X2/3/4.

With all that in mind, we were considering tracking down an 8 cyl 4.6 ECU from 1998 as they are 4 bank and still have the same ignition setup as the 96 car. We would start with a 98 Cobra bin. Support for flash and logging looks to be much better for this type of ECU.

We did not think a 99-04 ecu would work since COP was implemented.

Any thoughts on feasibility of that plan are appreciated.

Thanks.

can you use the 03/04 ecu no prob just won't have tach unless you swap to the newer cluster

cop doesn't matter just simply set if for coil pack

98 ecu is fine too and tach should work
