On paper, your car is quicker and faster, but races don't happen on paper.

Just make it a fun rivalry race, don't get hung up in a lot of BS, and let it end at the track. We are only a week or so away from Island and the other tracks around the region opening up. Get yourself to the track and get some practice in.

Hmmm...my friend has a bolton 99 M3 + full suspension. He thinks like low 14.2-14.4 on street tires. It's a screamer and corner carver, not meant to be a drag car. But they are light.

Unless you 'tard out at the line there's NO reason you should lose this race.

don't know what kinda dyno you have at school or what correction factor was used but the first 4 guys in that thread and many others had more than just an exhaust and made less power. he might have a little more than just an exhaust. nothing major though.

either way i think you still have him as long as you don't destroy the launch

didn't know the OBDI and II's were different engines sorry. 240 is still a little high for an exhaust only though. could be the dyno or correction factor used, just saying there's a possibility he has a few more mods.

same engine. different output ratings, and different reactions to the tuning. the obd1 cars dont like bolt ons as much, but seem to love boost more than the 96-99 cars

hmm I'm leaning towards he does have more mods but isn't sharing them. but seems like once i do a few things to my car or maybe even the way it is now I should have him.
