Tires and wheels were stock with 20mm spacers all around, and the tpms were also removed. Awhile back I noticed it has a green bolt on the front of the engine.. looks like a ground. Thought maybe a grounding kit? I'll have to take a picture of it and see if you know what it could be. That was the only indication that it had be modified.
that's not really the most scientific way to establish speed

Well I'm assuming a 350 and 370 feel very similar at that speed. I'm not trying to be scientific. I'm just sayin..

they don't. the shorter wheelbase on the 370 is going to make it feel notably different, not to mention the fact that your car is slammed.

Oh..I see. Well my 350 was slammed as well...had a little more done to the engine too. I guess i'll get my friend to stand on the edge of the road and use my Hotwheels radar gun next time so I can get an accurate speed and prove myself..

It's safer just to sit here and theorize.
