I have been offered a '97 spec UK engine to replace the broken '95 UK spec engine in my car. I believe that there some change occured with the engines that year - any idea what the differences are?? and when they occured?? otherwise will the engine be a direct replacement??
Cheers

different manifold, different heads, different intercooler, different ecu, different turbo, ignition block instead of coil packs, there is quite a lot in it!
would rather go with another 95 engine.
