the MK1 is around 90bhp, and the MK2 is 98-100BHP. There are the obvious loom differenes as well (bonnet, lights etc). MK2 also has different airbox, exhaust, and coilpack I believe but sure there are many many other things. These are just the ones I've noticed.

not all mk2's are 98bhp, think they went to them when they changed engine spec in 2001, ie, 3 plug ECU, cat in downpipe etc.

yeah mines got cat in mani.. 2001 first registered in august 01 its defo the 100bhp one... Or 98 bhp.... that text service thing where you find out about your car tells me its 100bhp but you know, 2 BHP doesnt really matter.
