Default Hang Tuning

I found this guy who owns a Tuning shop 3 miles from my house. He owns a 05 Mustang GT. he said that he did all the tuning on his car Manually. His car is at around 380HP he said. How much would my car stand to gain from manual tuning. push it to what. 230-240 if possible.

I have a 01 V6 5Spd Zinc Yellow Beauty. Basically all stock not much done to it. Except for a K&N air filter in the stock Intake housing.

That sounds extermely fishy. So before you commit anything, remember what he says and post it here.

the entire car is computer controlled. there is nothing he can do to it "manually". Even if he is talking about a tuner, there is no way on earth that he has the thing at 380 without a significant list of mods LOL.

What everybody else said is true. Without going into the computor you can't change anything, and 380rwhp with major mods is not going to happen. The guy is a wanna be.
