Default would this yield any power gains?

i have a date with a nice little 4 door EF at the junkyard tomorrow... the guy is giving me the 3 spoke steering wheel, gauge cluster with tach, dash clock, center console, rear speaker pod w/ speakers and power locks for only $50! all parts are in mint condition... my question is that i have the standard model hatch with dp fuel injection... would i get any power gains from swapping ecu's if its an LX or DX? the guy only wants like $10 for it so i figured why not? im not switching to MPFI b/c i plan on doing an LS-T swap towards the later part of the summer and its just a waste of money and time in my eyes... thanks a lot for the help

you need more gas mpfi is the best start 2 shitty injectors are not making the motor happy thats why it has no topend power

haha thanks... i was just wondering if i could get any power out of the ecu alone since i could get it for so cheap... as mentioned above i dont want to spend very much money on this motor due to it being gone in a month and a half or so... anyone know any other ways to get some cheap power out of this thing? lol thanks for the help guys
