![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Does anyone know why the W203 2.3k has more HP than the W202 2.3k engine? Both have about the same torque rating.
What changed to increase the power rating? Again, this is in relation to the 2.3 kompressor engine, not the 1.8 kompressor..
Thank you all...

Now, the C320 doesn't suffer this same problem.
