Really be suprised if the PO didn't keep the invoice when the work was done. Ask her if there is a folder somewhere that might have the paperwork.
Vortech would lead towards A & A, that is their standard head unit...
Let us know what you find after you see it in person. I had a A6 with a Centri and they had a really hard time tuning the auto. Would always bang the rev limiter and just wouldn't shift right. Hopefully you get a chance to get it on the road for a WOT and see how the auto performs...

Also get the serial # off the head unit. I can tell a lot by that.

I don't even see headers. OP, stock centri kit like this is good for about 550 whp with the right tune. Should be a fun car, A&A builds a great kit.
You buying or passing? If you buy it, your next bit of research will be new rear tires

Well, you can look at this way.. One less thing to buy. If you're interested in headers and meth, that can always be purchased. You can take it to a reputable shop to have the headers, meth and tune done. Viola.. 650 rwhp!
