WOW.
Right now my car is stock, and its a manual. His car is an auto, so i have the advantage there! Hopefully that will give me some help, what kind of person buys an auto sports car? Makes it so much slower haha.
What kind of dipshit buys a piece of shit 1995 Civic DX and compares it to a WS6?
Now im thinking i wont have to do much to keep up, they are heavy as hell unlike my civic, so like what would i have to do? How about I/H/E? Right now hes stock, Also, hes planning on doing some head and cam work over the summer or something, so id love to beat him after he does all of that too.
Your 1.5 liters of fury is sure to keep up with a 350 horsepower V8 after you free up all that pesky back pressure and that super restrictive stock intake. I'm sure that extra gear you have will make up the rest.
So what do i need to do? Whats a good intake and exhaust and header? I want to show him what an import can do. Also, i only have like 500 dollars to spend right now, but im hoping thats enough to beat him.

Invest the $500 into a decent handgun and end it.
