it would be stupid to put SVT gauges in a non SVT as the mph and rpm would not read correctly.

Look closely at where the svt plaque should be. It looks as if the badge may have been removed or photochopped out. The only other thing that screams "SE" to me is that the grille has the slats going across it instead of the honeycomb. Why would anyone do that to an SVT?

SVT's KKM intake usually connect into the fenderwell, unless this person purposely purchased the SE one.

true. and somebody a while back posted that they had put SVT gauges in an SE sport (i was browsing as a guest at the time)...these things can be calibrated.

Not if you removed it to chrome the UIM.

I don't like the SVT honeycomb myself. The SE/LX/GL(98) grille flows a lot more smoothly with the car. When I get an SVT the first thing to go will be the stock grille, hopefully with ElKy mesh in its place.
