FLSL55

Post up your stock SL55 rwhp numbers with the year of your car.

Did 03-05 Sl55's ALL have the same rated HP?

From what I have seen the stock E55 made more RWHP than stock SL55's.

Did they have the same trans? I know they were rated at LESS hp from the factory but that was to not overshadow their big dog SL!

same motor. i heard they were just quoted to have less hp than the SL55 my MB so as not to take away from potential buyers from purchasing the highend models such as the SL and S and CL55 AMG. meaning they should make the same hp. it is kind of like what BMW did with the 335i. underreport the hp (they claim it makes 300 crank but it dynos 280) so it doesnt affect the sales of the M3.

I also recall reading a while ago that the E55 may have had this "snorkel thing" that restricted their intake more, though i dont recall if that was true or not.
