But having said that, alpine135i says he did the swap without changing the ECUs so it may be a lot more simpler. Maybe the car just needs to be coded with the amnual transmission option in the VO.

The DME will probably not need much of anything done to it. They're two separate control units. The biggest thing that needs to be achieved is to have the immobilization system aligned and the transmission control unit programmed to your vin. If an Autologic isn't capable of doing that, (I'd be shocked if it wasn't) a dealership can get that done.
