Default Are 2004 EX's Faster?

Has anyone bought a '04 EX yet? I was wondering if the new carb made much of a difference.

My cousin just recently bought a 2004 400EX and raced it against a KFX400 and said the KFX400 was faster on top end, but that it was mostly even until then, but he also said the rider on the KFX isn't as good of a rider, so with equal riders there is no telling what will happen.

how much would it cost to buy the new 04 carb and have it put on an older model, would it even be worth it? the cost in canadian funds would be preferable.
