150 hp to 193 hp and 180 hp to 210 hp, why is that?

I'v been told that the 150 and 180 engine is just the same except the software, but how come the 150 engine is chippeble to just 193 and the 180 engine to 210?

Because I don't think it is just different in the software.
I believe the turbo and intercooler is bigger?

Both K03 and same intercooler...

I believe it's mainly the exhaust, although I've been informed that with a sports exhaust you will still be under the 210 of a chipped 180, around 203, there must be another small difference?
Plugs? Air filter? Could be anything small for that 7bhp or so. Not sure how the torque figures compare.....

Hi all,
As Tavia RS will testify , it looks like the Octavia RS comes with 193bhp as standard , not 180! Wonder if this has any bearing on 'chipped' figures?

Injectors?
