The discussion here says: "Starting with v201402, you can no longer enable enhanced CPC for the manual CPC bidding strategy (see the *Deprecated* section in the v201402 release notes <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/#v201402>).".
If the above is true why does Google AdWords management console offers a check box to enable ECPC with Manual CPC as recommended in Google documentations here <https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/2464964?hl=en>. In this link scroll down and read* "How to turn on ECPC"*. There seems to be a contradiction between what is stated here and what is in the link.
