If your car is a 480 ES which is the non turbo version, then your car is very unlikey to be rich modded.

Rich's modification is for the turbo cars, it raises the boost pressure and keeps the fueling and injection in check.

As far as i know he did do a few experiments on the Naturally Aspirated cars, but the gains were not worth the while.
