Default 430 Hp vs 436 Hp

I know this must have a very simple answer but why do some ads for the "08 say 430 HP and some say 436 HP?

Just get a good intake and exhaust and you'll be up there. But that's just like the kid with the ricers saying "I just need a new engine and new powertrain to be able to keep up with a mustang gt.

It's not about 6 hp. If you have NPP, it's about the SOUND! Once you hook up the M2W switch, you can have it all!
