No need.  The 5kt auto ECU is the same as the manual ECU.  The difference is
that there is a wire on the autos which is cut from the factory on the
manual cars.  Essentially the wire sends feedback to the ECU as to when the
brake pedal is depressed so it can limit boost.  Simply cut this wire if you
use the auto wiring harness.

Also FYI, I didn't use the decel valve on my 4ktq and the car runs fine
without it.
