fortunate for the z guys...if the wrx owner doesn't launch properly...he can do some serious damage to his car. AWD cars don't like launching too much even though their good at it! And unless he has the STi 6 sp tranny swap, the 5 sp doesn't last long at all!

Honestly - you should be able to destroy him on a real track ... just make sure its a technical one and you are a good driver who knows the limits of your car... once the scooby gets a bunch of suspension done with the power it puts down - you can kiss your race good bye... honestly - if you want to be able to hold your own against stock turbo cars your only real option is a TT or SC kit...
Why dont you ask him what his quarter mile times are and what he traps? if he does not know... chances are he has no idea how much power he is actually putting down... a lot of people like to talk... |

Hmm you dont know what size turbos etc. He could just be baiting you with the 350hp remark so you would think "oh we are close in hp" etc. I will bet he will beat you pretty good especially from a dig. If it were me Id do it just for fun. My ego aint ever been wrapped up in my car. Have a friendly race and post the results.

That car will probably smoke you, to be honest just enjoy your car.

This thread is right about where it should be.
Three full pages of arguments over which car is faster or more refined blah blah blah. Reminds me of 7th grade. I'm going to head back over to that "age of 370" owners thread and make sure I'm still in the right place.
