Engine differences?

Hello,

I know the GC8C48D 1995 engine is 260ps in power & the GC8D48D 1997 engine is 280ps, but what I would like to know is what gives the 1997 engine the extra power?

Cheers!

The ECU will be a large part of the power diffrence.
I may be wrong but I think the injectors went from 380 to 440 also.
