[Star Wars] What "special modifications" to the Millennium Falcon was Han Solo referring to in A New Hope when Luke referred to it as "a piece of junk?"

He's referring to its engines and hyper drive. The YT-1300F model is referred to as a piece of junk because it's pretty old and not that good of a freighter. But the difference between a regular YT-1300F and the Millennium Falcon is that the latter is very heavily modded. Under the hood it's an entirely different ship, with very advanced parts installed. The modified engines make the Millennium Falcon an incredibly fast ship that's faster than pretty much anything else in the galaxy.
