Y87 Auto, Cold Air, catback, his is a 5sp, i could hear the blow off valve behind me when he was shifting. He has a lot of work into it. I was surprised i won.... I had just put some 104+ in my gas tank, i wasnt sure about it but my acceleration was way faster than it has ever been.

really not all that suprising that u took him exlipse turbo is pushing eh 210 215 hp once the turbo winds up so off the line your gonna crush him since ure not bone stock even after his turbo dose wind up ure close to the same horse so between his turbo lag and front wheel drive only specially if it wasnt that long of a race not a big suprize that you took him out also i doubt that the gas made much of a differance it was probly you adreneline that made ure car feel faster than ever nice kill tho

I would say that the eclipse should have one...but being a stick...it depends on the driver...so ya, it's really a driver race i'd say
hp is about the same...but the eclipse is lighter i assume
350DREAMS...do you have a 350 then? or dreaming of one?
bc gen3 V8's are nothing special either...even the 350's aren't that much better perf wise than the 3.8 imo

the late 5.7 TPI was rated @ 245hp....and are VERY easy to make power with...so the 3rd gen 4th gen argument is crap....the worlds fastest street car was a 3rd gen quite some time...80% of a race is driver i have seen "faster" cars loose because the driver didn't know how to drive.
