Question for those who went from 18" to 19"...

I am more interested in what "small mods" made 500 hp.

It got so annoying I sold them 6 months later and purchased some nice 18" aftermarket wheels.

Keep in mind my car was pushing 500hp with my small upgrades (chip & exhaust)
Bolded for you. He was referring to his previous car that the mods gave him 500 hp.
