The difference between the two is primarily computer code. The BPC valve is also different, and I think the spark plugs are also still platinum instead of copper. Copper plugs seem to work better, though, and lots of HOT owners switch. The Abbott racing computer flash will (okay, should; mine does :) make your car faster than a Viggen, but it voids your warranty.
