All the same USA spec

For power output, they were all the same rating of 493 HP in 2003 Model Year. MBUSA did not derate the cars destined for CA or other CARB-compliant states like MA.

I doubt anything changed in 2005.

the only diffrence in performance parts between the 2005 and the earlier models is that the supercharger has a diffrent part number
the old ones ends with 280. the new ones end with 580 which translate to a bit of more angle in the scrow of the supercharger which add about 0.5 PSI of boost
