Performance Package or Aftermarket Mods?
So, I picked up a 2007 GT about a year ago. I am now looking to throw some mods in it and I am finding that certain items do not match what I am expecting to see on the car.
Is there anyway to find out if the car came with any performance parts from the dealer?
I know it has a Ford Racing CAI, I think it is the "Bullitt Cold Air Intake by Ford Racing".
Also it seems that the exhaust is not standard in some way as the Tips are rolled, though the mufflers look stock.
I don't want to go duplicating anything, or if I am going to get a tuner I want to make sure I have the right mods listed.

We need some bricks to build a house. Need to know exactly what intake you have. Has any exhaust work been done on it? Headers, x pipe, cat deletes, etc. Don't worry about the mufflers, that will not matter other than sound.

That is the thing..
I don't know what has been done to it. I thought it was stock. But now that I am looking at mods I am noticing that things on the car don't match the stock.
I know when you purchase a car you can get performance add-ons from the factory. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to look this information up.
When I was looking at exhausts I noticed that the stock tip is just a single walled pipe, where mine has a rolled tip. So that tells me something is not stock.
Once this snow melts, I will see if I can take a look under the car, maybe find some part numbers.

You got a hood scoop, 18" chrome bullitts, rolled exhaust tips, and plenum cover.
