W202 C230k vs W203 C230k

Does anyone know why the W203 2.3k has more HP than the W202 2.3k engine? Both have the same torque rating anyway.

What are the differences? Again, this is in relation to the 2.3 kompressor engine, not the 1.8 kompressor..

Thank you all...

trbo2nr, thanks for the link. Great info from the factory.

The differences seem to be a different fuel injection system, and a air-to-liquid intercooler. I think the w202 is only an air-to-air intercooler. I wonder if this is correct.

Thanx again..
