 That's right... I do recall someone mentioning before that the only way
around the CIS-E rev limit is to replace the actual KE-Jetronic box with one
from another car... I think.  

So, the 8v's used fuel cutoff and 16v's use spark cut for the limiter?
If this is the case, would the installation of a MSD ignition on a 16v
allow for a higher rev limit, or would the knock box still be in control?
hmmm... even at 2AM I'm still really curious about this now!  hehe
