Anyone in Chicagoland know this car?
Found this on Craigslist as a part out. It's a 2003 anniversary coupe. Spoke to the shop who bought the car for parts and he said it has some performance parts and that the rear tires are 345's with a minitub.
Curious to know if anyone here is familiar with the mods performed. The shop didn't know specifics.

Yes, that was kinda what made me inquire about specifics and what else it had on it. Shop did say Kook headers and aftermarket exhaust, but both were gone. It appeard the SC is located on the driver's side in place of alternator. I *think* that is a Vortech?

Here is the old Vortech kit in the top picture and the A&A kit in the bottom pic. The A&A kit has never had a problem. The A&A kit also made a bunch more power. went from 480 to 620 hp at the wheels and picked up almost 100ft lbs torque at the rear tires. (A&A kit made 2.5lbs more boost than the old vortech kit)

Thanks Mallet! I had been in contact a few times with the seller to get more details and pictures, but he never followed up. Since then, I just gave up asking. My hope was I could purchase and maybe flip it for some profit, but I don't care to keep pursuing the seller.
