Wikipedia says:

"HP was rated at 205 for 1991-1993 engines (models vary), and 225 for 1994-1995 engines. The additional horsepower was gained by using a larger throttle body, roller rockers and epoxy coated supercharger rotors, improving efficiency."

Is this true? If not, how should it read?

Thanks Oldsman. So is it correct to call them roller rockers? I think that's a bit misleading.

The tip has no roller so I would say roller rockers is not the correct name for it.
