There is a company, in California I belive, called Superchips, that makes
a Chip for the CIS-E system, you have to send them your box and they
desolder your factory chip and resolder a new(improved?) chip, probably
doing the same thing as the Power Module from Autotech, I believe(but
could be wrong) it cost about $185.
