2006 GT advice

Hey there, im currently looking at possibly buying a mustang and one of the pictures the seller sent me was this one of under the hood. I'm not too sure on what, if any mods have been installed to this car, please help me to learn what to look for! Thanks in advance!

Just glancing at it, I'd say not much had been done to it. He's obviously got an intake on it. So if he didn't specify what tune he had on it, I'd run 93 octane and get a tune asap.

Other than that, it looks mostly stock. And, I'm ashamed to say, that engine bay looks much cleaner than mine.

The air intake and tube are aftermarket as mentioned plus the blue coverings on the lines around the engine.

Most likely the car has a tune but research the type intake and verify. A few out there need no tune. If it requires a tune, there should be a system to set it up available from the seller.

yes make sure if it has a tune or not. If it does have a tune get the tuner from the owner if you buy the car or make sure the stock tune is in there before you buy.
