The 04/05's power comes on smooth. The 06 has a hit in the midrange, and takes off. You won't beat an 06 off the line, but you might catch them on the top end, because they have lower gearing???

HRC kit is your best bet!

HRC kit and a aftermarket exhaust is the best way to wake them up.

if u wanna go the cheapest way. buy a 13:5.1 pistion 200 dollers stage 2 hot cams 250 dollers and u wont have to change anyhting to done those mods! just jetting take the baffle out of ur stock exhaust to where u just have the end cap on it. take ur air box lid off and u will beat the 06. the HRC kit is a waste of money all u get is a cam and then stupid stuff that u dont need like air box lid a end cap for ur exhaust stuff liek that

i think the HRC kit was worth the money. cam $150 Jet kit $65, and all the other goofy stuff. it helped a lot. but an aftermarket exhaust and intake and jetting with a cam will help. either get a big bore kit or the JE 13.5:1 piston and you will have all the power you need.
