Well it appears that when looking at the engines construction the cams HPP or the EDC17CP14 controllers they are the same being EU5 & even same turbo charger or injectors other than for rated output, right?

The first three letters of a 4-digit VW engine code denote the mechanical design and the last letter denotes the power output. The difference in output is from the software in the ECU.
