I think they slightly detuned the engine to remove the need for SAI and EGR and upped the capacity to compensate. It's got an extra few horsepower but nothing noticeable.

Things are less cluttered under the bonnet on the 3.2 / 2.6 now that the SAI pipework and the EGR valve have gone, the throttle has gone electonic and there's no separate cruise control unit.
