Guys I know the question has been asked. But its been a while so hoping there is more information available.

I am looking at doing a 2.3 Swap into FOX, I have the engine pedal, ECU and the harness already. I am hoping to get away with not using the Ford performance control pack. Has there been any movement on defeating the PATS for these engines I am not interested in installing all the Factory ford pieces to make this work. I have found a guy that does turn key pullout crates that apparently do not use the factory key or "gateway module".

Yes I know the Pats switch is in the system setup, but like it states in the program this may not work in all applications.
