as far as i've seen from RICA the 2.3 gets abit more from a remap (around 10 bhp but dont quote me) so it all depends really how far you would want to take the power up

hope this helps :)

I've heard the 2.4 is generally more robust if you want to do more mods (like new injectors, turbo, downpipe)

Unless you're looking for big differences, i can't imagine there'd be that much in it.

I've spotted an 05 for sale at a good price (looks like a poverty spec ex-authority though). Are the manuals 6 speed?
