Good question Andrew.
I've read on this Forum that its only software and been very puzzled and disbelieving.
.
Then.....I was on the recent Forum organised Halewood visit and whilst going around the factory one of our Freel members asked the question of the tour guide, he confirmed that the extra umph was purely a software change and that mechanically everything is the same.
.
Perhaps £5.00 pays for the software and £995.00 goes into the warranty pot.
.
The replacement engine (2009 dated but 2011 spec), that I fitted last year to my 2010 did have injectors with different part numbers to my 2010 engine which I took out. (I've still got the injectors and HP pump in my garage).
.
The 190/150 later engines do have a bigger water cooled turbo than the earlier 160 engines.
.
Kind regards from Fred
