I hope somebody can shed some light into my mustang world. I bought a 96 mustang GT from a guy a few months ago and got a great deal on the car and you will see why. The guy only had the car a few months before he had to get rid of it because of a career change -- began working in construction. He was pointing out a few of the upgrades that had been placed on the car but I was unable to get specifics. I would like to know if there is any way to find out what is on my mustang so I can figure out how much HP I have. Here is what is on the car:

* K&N Air Filter (can see this is true)
* Cold air induction (or ram air, not sure which is right)
* a prefab chip
* some loud exhaust (wife complains because when I floor it she can hear for a few blocks, can tell it is new, it is still very silver)
* Some perfomance intake. You can tell the intake has been replaced along with thermistat and some other small things.

Among those things I have 17" wheels and I think everything else is stock. I have not run it in the 1/4 mile yet but I do know that I can hit 110mph in third gear and be at red line (not sure if that is good).

If you need more information I can give it to you but I am not sure what else you would want to know.
