Default Looking for Info

I bought a 03Z last year at Carlisle and have tried to track down wht the previous owner had done to the car. I know it has a vararam, an exhaust (just mufflers it looks like, only two outlets), and rumored a tune and a few other things including a rear with 3.90 or 4.11 gears. He is from Syosset, NY. the car was titled in Sept of 02. The owners name was Stephen Weinberger. any help would be appreciated.

there is a way to calculate what gears you have - something like go 70 mph (but I can't remember what gear you need to be in) and divide the RPMs by 100 - anyone have the details?
