AMP SN95 Mustang Plug-and-Play ECU (94-98 5.0/4.6L)

Standalone Engine Management Without Rewiring

Looking for the best plug-and-play standalone ECU for an 94-98 SN95 Mustang 5.0/4.6?

The AMP SN95 Mustang Plug-and-Play ECU is a true standalone engine management system designed to replace the factory EEC-IV or EEC-V computer and plug directly into the original Ford ECU connector and factory wiring harness — no cutting, splicing, repinning, or adapter harnesses required.

It’s built for serious street and strip SN95 builds, from mild HCI combinations to high-power boosted and stroker engines, while keeping installation clean, OEM-style, and reversible.

✅ True plug-and-play factory ECU replacement
✅ Uses the stock harness and factory sensors
✅ Supports high-power builds (boost, nitrous, stroker, HCI)
✅ Made in the USA + real in-house tech support (20 years)


True Plug-and-Play Installation (What Sets It Apart)

Many standalone ECUs offer advanced features, but require rewiring, aftermarket harnesses, or sensor conversions. The AMP SN95 Plug-and-Play ECU is engineered differently — as a factory-connector standalone ECU built specifically for the SN95 EEC-IV or EEC-V platform.

What “True Plug-and-Play” Means

  • Unplug the factory SN95 ECU

  • Plug in the AMP ECU using the factory connector

  • Retain the original wiring harness

  • Retain factory sensors

  • No adapter harnesses

  • No repinning

  • No cutting or splicing

You get full standalone control without turning your SN95 into a wiring project.


Installation Overview

Installation is straightforward and keeps the car’s wiring layout intact.

Basic installation process:

  1. Remove the factory ECU

  2. Plug in the AMP SN95 Plug-and-Play ECU

  3. Connect a vacuum reference line to the ECU’s internal MAP sensor

  4. Connect your laptop and verify communication

  5. Start the car and begin tuning

What You’ll Need (Two Small Notes)

  • Vacuum line to the ECU for the Internal 4-Bar MAP Sensor (included)
  • Wideband O2 Controller/Sensor is strongly recommended for safe and accurate tuning (not included)

Built for Real SN95 Engine Combinations

This ECU is designed to support a wide range of SN95 Mustang engine builds, from traditional small-blocks to large-displacement strokers.

Common supported combinations include:

  • 94-95 Models

    • Stock and modified 302 / 5.0 engines

    • 351-based builds

    • Stroker combinations such as 331 or 347

    • Large-displacement Stroker including 363, 393, 408, and 427

  • 96-98 Models
    • Stock and modified 4.6L engines
  • Turbocharged and supercharged applications

  • Nitrous-assisted builds (single, dual, or progressive)

Whether you’re running a street-friendly setup or a full race combination, the ECU provides the control and flexibility needed to tune confidently.


Drag Racing and Roll Racing Control Features

SN95 Mustangs are heavily used in drag racing, and this ECU is designed with those demands in mind.

The AMP SN95 Plug-and-Play ECU supports advanced racing features including:

  • Launch control for consistent, repeatable starts

  • Two-step rev limiter for staging and boost building

  • Anti-lag strategies for roll racing and turbo applications

  • Speed limiting for roll racing and controlled acceleration

  • Traction control strategies suited for drag racing applications

    • Configurable approaches depending on setup, power level, and available inputs

These features allow tuners and racers to manage power delivery, improve consistency, and protect driveline components — all while retaining a clean factory-harness installation.


Factory Harness and Sensors — With Standalone Control

The AMP SN95 Plug-and-Play ECU is designed around what SN95 owners value most: modern control without unnecessary changes.

  • Retains factory wiring layout

  • Works with factory sensors

  • Supports factory 94-95 5.0L TFI ignition strategy

  • Preloaded Speed Density base tune for startup

  • Full tuning and datalogging via TunerStudio

  • Supports flex fuel

  • Supports advanced nitrous control

You get the benefits of a standalone ECU while keeping the simplicity and familiarity of the factory system.


Designed to Grow With Your Build

As your SN95 evolves, the ECU is designed to grow with it.

Through its expansion capability, the platform can support upgrades such as:

  • Coil-on-plug (COP) ignition conversions

  • Cam and crank trigger configurations

  • Additional engine and pressure sensors

  • Electronic boost control

  • Dome pressure control

  • Water-methanol injection

  • And many more features . . .

This future-proof design allows you to expand beyond a factory-style configuration without replacing the ECU.


Compatibility Overview

The SN95 Mustang platform uses two different factory ECU systems depending on model year. To ensure a true plug-and-play installation, each Plug-and-Play ECU is built specifically for its respective SN95 configuration.
