Did my car belong to you?

I want to find out if its possible who my car belonged to maybe someone on this forum or someone on this forum knows someone who might of owned my car. I have pics on this link.............https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c55-amg-w203/157373-finally-got-c32.html the reason why I am looking for previous owner is cause car had installed Depo Clear housings and K&N filters also and the ECU might have got modded also back in jan or feb or march before I bought the car. I would like to talk to that previous owner to ask if car had or has mods I am not aware of.

if you dyno it you can tell if the ECU's modded or not. normal C32 usually only dyno around 280-290rwhp.

I use a place in Naperville. It's called GRD - Genesis Racing Development

They have been very helpful and I highly recommend them.

You can also try http://www.fall-linemotorsports.com/

They are closer to you than GRD.
