drop in still works on my 96. I dont know about 2000 and up. I would think it should though as the "gutting" really just removes the noise baffles.

Ok great thats what i was hoping. I noticed in the "how to" that Barry actually cut the opening in his fender wall bigger to allow more air into the box. Did any of you do this and is it necessary?

I did not. The hole the air come through into the box is slightly larger than the throttle body. It didn't make sense to make a bigger hole for intake, when the air would be drawn through a smaller hole into the SC.
