is there any difference in ecu's if it came out of a car that was available in both manual and automatic but the motor was the same?

Yes there is, I am not sure whats different but you cant put an auto ecu into a manual car unless you chip to be manual or something. Pm Rickles8099 bc hell know what to do to an auto ecu to make it a manual.

you have to move some resistors/jumpers around, its easy if you've soldered before.

search the pgmfi.org forums

"quick description.
remove RP17 leave open, remove RP18 and install jumper in PR18 location. "

the ecu i need for my swap is a needle in a hay stack so if i decide to give up on it im wondering if i could use an integra LS obd-2 ecu to fire a B20B..
