As far as I know the F150 has different camshafts and a different oil filter pedestal. I think other than that they are the same. There are several aftermarket options for ecu that will control VVTI. My personal preference is Link engine management (ViPec). When I originally did the swap in my Meteor in 2012 I worked with them to develop the trigger patterning for the Coyote. As far as I know we were the first ones to get a Coyote running on an aftermarket ECU with fully functional VVTI.
