eh? From what I'm aware, all the computer does is recieve a few signals such as the voltage from the TPS, the speed signal from the VSS, shifter position, and RPM signal and then turn that into commands for the transmission. Seems to me a 90 E4OD computer would work just the same all the years... for IDIs anyways.
