There are a few places that offer an ECU for the P10 in The States (you cannot just replace the chip).

Do not buy from JET! Their ECU was tested and the maps were determined to be unaltered (yes, stock!).
G-Force is supposed to be decent, but be careful. They gave SCC a ringer for testing and it almost blew up one of their engines as a result when it was used for a track event. There isn't much data out there regarding their product.
JUN knows their stuff but is expensive, and last I heard, you have to leave your car with them to get your ECU reprogrammed.
That leaves JWT. They are by far the most popular choice, and that is for very good reason. They do a lot of testing and have programs for all sorts of mods, from a nearly stock engine to a screaming drag racing turbocharged SR20 and lots in between.
Cost for the JWT ECU is $500 I believe for an OBD-I ECU (your car is OBD-I) and $595 for OBD-II. Once you have their ECU, the chip can be replaced and reprogramming is only $100.
You can do it yourself in about 20 minutes, or about an hour probably the very first time.
