What do you know about CPS's

So if i have read correctly the cps you buy from IH is different somehow than the CPS you buy from ford? what makes the IH part cost nearly $22 more? the only reason I ask is i was reading some other post about the very nicely priced AIC this site has. and decided to do some "shopping" and came across this.

I just put the latest Motorcraft in there so I could forget about it.

I wouldn't use the IH blue CPS. It will provide additional timing above stock, which we don't need. The original black CPS is really the one to have, but not being able to get them anymore, the next best thing is the one Glenn is talking about.

I'm with Travis. The blue CPS from International is actually from a different motor, not our 7.3 (T444e). Running it on a stock truck MIGHT be ok, but I wouldn't run one on a truck with any tunes since the timing is being played with that way already.

If you're looking for a little more pep, you're better off just getting a tuner.
