If you want to be fussy its the same engine, just diffrent bits and bobs which take power up to 230.

I want to know if both the cars have the same bodykit or if its different? From the pictures I see, the Edition 30 has a sportier body kit (not just the colour)...

Oh, ok... Well, I am not sure about the front (coz its black, a little hard to see in the pictures) but the back bumper is different... The lines are closer to the exhaust on the Edition 30, whereas in further apart from the exhaust in the normal GTI...

Ok, a few bits and bobs then.... like a new turbo, different compression ratios, different internals.
Suffice to say it is sufficiently different to get a different engine model code ;)
