As far as I am aware, the compressors are not the same due to the fact that the 16v reves much higher than the standard 190.

With my experience with my 16V, most drive train parts are unique to the 16V. The steering box is unique, trans, ...and the list goes on. Everytime I need a part from MB, it is always .. "it will be a few day, we need to special order it from MB in Germany". It's a PIA but damn I love my car.
