Default Estimate my GTs hp?

well i just bought my first "new" car, and although i love the car and stuff, i know little about the aftermarket upgrades done to it in regards to what it actually did for the car... (since i didn't drive it stock lol)

So can you guesstimate what the hp/tq is for my mustang?

here's the link if you want to see it (seller still hasn't taken it down)

http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...20031406&Log=0


and here's the info if you don't want to open it.
2010 mustang gt
steeda cold air intake
ford racing lowering springs
off road x pipe
flowmaster American thunder axleback high flow mufflers
ford racing 4.10 ring and pinion
SCT X3 tuner with custom tune


Also, it has 20' NASCAR rims (black with a small red circle line around the edge of the rim). i can't find them online, think theyre worth as much as rtr's or the AM version of them? i love the looks of those wheels

anyways,
Thanks!

~295rwhp and ~305ft/lbs. Wheels slow you down, 4.10s more than make up for that aiding in acceleration and lowering springs aide in handling. The Exhaust components account for ~5rwhp and the CAI/tune will account for ~30rwhp depending on which octane/tune you are running.

The 2010 GT is the same engine as the 05-09's (rated 300 flywheel HP) but with the Bullitt tune for the additional 15 flywheel HP. You stock RWHP is about 275-280 and the only power gain is the custom tune and CAI which, because you're already partly tuned with the Bullitt tune, MAY be adding another 15 RWHP. The gears don't add RWHP and the 20's will lose a few single-digit RWHP compared to lighter wheel/tire combos.

Bottom line, I'd be hard pressed to say anything higher than 295 RWHP. And even that would depend on whose tunes you're running. Inferior tunes and I'd say 280-290.

If your not happy with the numbers you can always add more mods. Longtubes, cams and supercharger will change everything. Post pics of the car too.

Link in your sig claims you have "GTA mufflers & X-pipe". Removing the cats won't account for much.
