Nope . The same shizzle . Only real changes on the Bonnies / Thruxs/ Scrambs . etc are the paint schemes and other cosmetics . But motor wise nada .

Errrrrr..... I believed the main change between 07 and 08 was that 08 don't have carbs

Here in the US I thought the '08 still had carbs but got the slightly larger fuel tank in preparation for fuel injection?

the US doesnt switch to EFI until next year (2009), and the tank isn't larger, it just looks larger. the tank shape was changed to accomodate the fuel pump. If you have on '08 here in the states you can put your hand underneat the tank and feel an empty spot where the fuel pump is located in the EFI bikes, but the tank is the same size, just a bit more bulbous.
