Wait, what? It sounds like you're describing a hypothetical car you'd like to find and purchase, but it's awfully detailed.

This is the car i am currently trying to buy, the mod list os the description on the website.

I looked at the car and it has a horrible tune and very Rich between 4500 and 5500 rpms *black smoke*.

Car is making 500hp to the wheels, compression is 150 to 152 all cylinders. Needs new plugs as well.

Ah, that makes more sense.

If the tune is junk, I wouldn't be confident that the build is done well either. A Magnacharged LS3 should be making substantially more than 500 to the wheels. Maybe it's just the tune, maybe not. Maybe it's rich because something's wrong and they're compensating by overfueling it. Hard to say.

I'd look elsewhere, personally.

The car has a crapy tune the dealer who has it has no clue what hes doing. The car is running rich from the dyno test. I am not sure how much power the car should be making but in guessing on 7 lbs around 600. Motor is solid and has an exhaust leak at the headers.

For the mods on the car and the price i am still interested just trying to do my research.
