There isn't really any such thing to be honest, as there weren't enough changes to warrant calling them phase 1/2, but as well as the points already mentioned the later cars had a different map (af), which is renowned for a having what they call an 'af cough' where they have a slight misfire at 4k. It's not a major problem though, and if you remap the car will sort that out.
I've only had mine a month or so and it's an awesome car, handles brilliantly for a fwd car and with a few mods they go ok too
not entirely true
any car that went back to ford would have had the af map flashed whether it be an early or late model.so you can have early models with the af map but you wouldnt find a later model with the ae map,also remapping them with dreamscience/bluefin doesnt remove the af cough,you need the ae map flashed to remove that,guys on the rsoc can do the ae plus tuna remap
