Lets start with what I know, PO purchased the car with 7k on it lowered, tinted, chiney wheels and 3:73 gears.
We'll call him Chuck (because that's his name) added BBK long tube headers, catted X pipe, and Dynomax 3" mid pipe and straight through mufflers, it's real loud in a good way.
After a few years of loud, slow and low, Chuck added more power. First Brenspeed grind Detroit rocker cams, then FRPP intake, under-drive pulleys a fresh tune and hotter coils. This stuff was has 2-5k miles on it. Dyno says 330hp at the wheels. This matches what Brenspeed usually gets with this combo. I bought it with 28k miles on it and upgraded the suspension and wheels.
