I (the guy that just got this car a few weeks ago)  have noticed a small
box bolted to the firewall.  It says Autotech power module, and has
wires running to the coil and also to the fuel distributor.  Is this
what you're asking about?  I can't tell you the difference, but am
thinking about disconnecting it to see what a stock 16v feels like. 
Haha, if there is no difference you can buy it from me!  :)
