I may understand the fact it was sold to Braman and from Braman to the Hickory NC dealership and then off to me!!

How can I find out ?!!!
Man, I wouldn't be surprised if the car has a tune give some of the other mods you mention the previous owner put on the car.

You can easily find a piggy by checking the OBD II port; a flash tune's another animal that will be harder to detect. If it's a piggy you can look up the tuner and go from there.

Dyno the car and and see where you are power wise; an MPE exhaust doesn't do much other than change the exhaust tone so if the numbers are high you're probably tuned.

Good luck.
