Lorenzo: I assume that you found the "old" pulley fit fine on the '04? Others who have tried the DUB system said the shaft is the same size, just that the SC snout is different. Any other comments?

To answer your question - no mods yet, waiting to insure there are no other issues with the new car before I mod it. I'll wait a month or so.... wink

the snout is different, but the pulley fits the same. From what I've heard, the only difference between the M90 and the MP90 is that the MP90 is a little more efficient... and somehow produces 20 more hp

I find it difficult to believe that the blower alone is worth 20 hp. It is more efficient, using ca. 15% less power to run. The TB on the '04s is larger, and there is no U-bend in the exhaust either. These changes, along with the new blower, probably account for the 20 hp increase.

How much diffence did you notice with the smaller pulley/intake? eek

it was a pretty significant increase... going from 3.8 (I think) to 3.0 is a pretty big jump

I've edited some images and posted some images of what a 2 door would look like... boy wouldn't that be nice!!!!!
