Ayuh,... If the part #s are different, chances are the module is also different...

This is the guy trying to get you to buy it?

Just because it "looks" the same, doesn't mean that it IS the same. If you put a module on the engine that advances the timing too much, it could cause a detonation event that could destroy the engine.

Is that worth saving $50-100?

2 electronic devices can "look" the same and have VASTLY different characteristics.

Roll the dice......let us know how it turns out...............take pictures and include part numbers so someone with the same question can find the post in the future !
