Didn't see it posted here, but just read about it in either C&D or something.. 2004 SRT-4 now has 230HP instead of 215HP, and it does come with the LSD standard, with an optional sunroof. Price looks like it went up around $300. Maybe if the weather cooperates tomorrow, I'll go test drive one and come back with my thoughts on it.

I think the HP is the same in 2004 as it was in 2003, they just updated the numbers. All the SRT'4's were dyno'ing higher than what they should have, so that would be my guess. Might as well leave it higher if there aren't any problems.

Anyone read the new SCC article on the SRT4? They didn't cut corners on engine internals. Basically didn't do any bean counting and beefed up everything. Finally DMC does something right.
