Default C180 and C230 kompressor diferences?

Hello everybody!

Do you know what are the differences between the C180 K and C230 K ? (both 1800cc models)
The only difference in the spec-sheet is the compression-ratio, so I assume the 230 runs with a higher charger pressure.
Do they have the same Supercharger model? (an eaton part I think)
Is it possible to modify the 180 into a 230?

Thanks! any ideas are welcome

btw- It's my first post here

Isn't the C180 a 1.8 litre while the C230 is either a 2.3 or 2.5 litre? (New C230s in the States are 2.5 litre)
The C180 has about 143 BHP while the C230 has around 192 BHP.

Here in portugal the HP is those you just quoted, but both models are 1.8liter, we pay taxes based on displacement, so the brands always go for the lower displacement they can :P

Anyone here has access to an EPC?
All I want to know is if both 1800cc models, c180k and c230k, have the same intercooler and supercharger models
