Welcome to FTE,
No , you can not just have it reflashed to get that extra HP.
In 04 they came out with the 300 HP rating. It's a little different from your 99.
However you could mod your 99 and get close to 300. It all depends on how much money your willing to spend.
For about $3500 to $4000. you could do a Lightning conversion on it and make over 350 HP.
Or you could go with mods like electric fan /open exhaust/ K&N intake or other and tuner or programmer. All of this will get you close to 300 HP.

my 2001 makes more than that and it's the same 2valve like yours....
then again, i now have a dual exhaust, CAI and Power Programmer...for a few ponies.
