Currently we are both at 181K on the odometer. Now with the mods He has a little jump, but within about 150 feet I start pulling on him and by the time we get about 1/8 mile I have him by a couple car lengths (2-3) and by the time I hit 1/4 mile he has really fallen way back (about 6-8 car lengths).
With the better airflow in my car I have Alot more power in the high rpms. I finally got my cousin to race me in his 1996 Buick Riviera with the 240hp Series I SC'ed 3800 with only the K&N drop-in I gave him.
He really whooped me on the jump with his traction control on, but once I hit about 30 mph he stops pulling on me and I do actually start catching up to him. From 60-80 I actually inch ahead of him, but very slowly -that'* why I say "inching ahead".
