Would It benefit a Automatic in anyway?

Yes, it has nothing to do with the transmission, but the signals from the throttle to the ecm. It can help all cars with drive by computer.

I thought about doing this too. E-throttles main purpose is for emissions. It eliminates sudden rich conditions that the converter cant clean up. Thats why the down rev is slow and tip in is gradual to make sure what fuel thats being injected is completely being used, resulting in reduced emissions.

I wonder if one could swap xb/xa throttle along with matching ecu could work...?

I guess that would just depend on what else is managed by the ECU. It would be worthwhile to at least look at the EWD and find out what connections go into/out of the ECU.

Different pinouts on the xA and xB. You'd then also have to (1) make a custom harness or (2) hardwire the new ECU into place.

Okay guys, Bringing this thread back from the dead, Talked about going the cable throttle way well now i need answers, I was thinking about using a set of 2004-2005 pedals since they were by cable, then i wouldve used the echo's throttle but i was told it may be too small so i got suggested a Celica throttle.i was told that any throttle mod needed to be managed with an standalone unit since the stock ECU wouldnt do it. So know the question is,
How does the standalone works?for the wiring how's it done? do you keep the stock plus the standalone or does the Standalone does it all by herself?

I hope you guys can help me out with this.
