i have heard this before, i just wonder why it doesn't hold a 20hp difference to a 99-00 with the same mods..(pulley, chip, ect.), if it did i would upgrade intake and blower.

That is true; the lower intake does have a different design. 99~00's had the weird bolt pattern on the blowers, and a couple of the bolts actually were in the middle of the openings for the ports. The 01~04's had the bolts lined up prefectlly to keep the ports open.

Some of us like our 3.55 gears....its the only way we can theoretically hit 190mph! (lol, yeah right, haha...though I have hit 152-153mph).

Heheh...actually, I think for Solo2, I prefer my 3.55's, the 3.73's would probably make it harder to gain out of a corner without breaking loose.
