Tom:
My understanding: The "N" only indicates whether it was the HOT turbo or not, POST 1998. There was no motor designation in the SE, all turbos were the same. The differences with the HOT 1999 (N) are internal (ECU, maybe cams... it's been debated) and the intercooler. The HOT motor has a cross flow intercooler. Some people suggest that the HOT has the TD04 tturbo but I don't think that's true on the T5 / 1999. Check eeuro to be sure. Otherwise the engines are likely identical physically. The worst is that you'd need to get some plumbing from either car to make the intercooler hoses match. If the ECU from the '98 doesn't give you as much power, you can by a T5 Stage 1 from GS for $100.
