Fly by wire mainly. There are some differences in the inlet IIRC, ECU is obviously different and the astra will have pre-cat and cat and probably 2 lambda sensors. Aside from the throttle body which will need swapping everything else should either be ok or can be swapped from the old engine.

There are some small differences but essentially the same - it should be ovious which bits of which you need to swap if any.
