The 405hp was made so they could keep selling them. So people who don't know any better and never drove a 2001 and read too much go.......gee I bet that 405hp is fast grandpa cause the 01 ONLY has 385hp.

So you own an 01 and 02 yet the 01 is faster. Have you taken it down the 1/4 mile? How do you know? Can you even feel 20hp? That's 2 tenths in the quarter assuming all variables are the same. Very hard to feel. Why are you arguing with 20 more hp? The 01 is NOT faster you need to face that fact. Driven equally on the same day, same time, same tires, same launch, same everything the 02-04 is faster.

You are right 20hp doesn't mean squat. It is very minor but 385 is still 20 less then 405. I have nothing against 01s, i looked forever for a speedway white but just couldn't find the right one. I don't think my car is better then your 01 because it has 20 more hp. I'm just laughing that you think 01s are always quicker then 02-04s when they aren't my friend.

So have you ever taken your 01 or 02-04 down the strip?

The auction prices are low (for the year), but with the miles I could see that car going for a bit more than 15k...

My can catches about a tablespoon over 1500 miles. After a day at the track its got about 2 now.

Catch can should be the first mod on ANY year Z06.
