The red box came as part of a performance kit, which included a recurved distributor and a 2.8 BAR fuel pressure regulator. I forget the hp increase, but I'd guess at 10. Dealer list was +/- $700. Perhaps the APC box could be ordered separately? As far as I know, they were all the same but there is a reasonable chance that the boxes varied during their production run. The one you found will work fine on any 900t that has the APC in the fenderwell(86 on?? 85's have the APC under the back seat and the plug is different). In untweaked form, you will not notice much of a difference to a stock APC, nice cosmetics though. Maybe a little faster spool up and the boost might go a little into red. But you can tweak this box just like a regular one by turning the f and p pots clockwise. F about 90 degrees and p 15-20. There are lots of posts and info on how to tweak on the performance bb. Gas mileage will not vary much unless you tweak the box and have a heavy foot for boost.
