03 CL-S v.s. mazda-3

my classmate says he'll win "burn" me with his 07 mazda-3 (hatch). his is pretty new, stock turbo.

mine is 03 cl-s n stock also, other than a drop and heavy ass audio equipment.

both our cars are stock and stick.... who would win? i mean my car is way heavier than his.


this guy is a prick btw.

ok dude. ima gonna give it to ya strait....
Normally, I'd say that he would win... I mean his car is like 200lbs lighter than yours, and he's making like 270hp with that stock turbo, as compared to like 260 with your v6, but....

since you say he's a prick, I'd probably say that you would win.

Spend $150 for XS Power Headers and $150 to install them, then you won't have to worry

The Mazdaspeed 3's are giving SRT-4s a run for the money, so I'd say even with the headers you're still behind him or just keeping up, unless he's a bad driver and you're good. Let us know if you do it.

That Mazdaspeed 3 is killer hots stock boosted.

If the guy opts for the Mazda free-flow and the other tack-on (sorry I can't recall), then its actually more closer to 300HP when equipped with the bolt-ons purchased direct from Mazda.

Thats alot of power.

But from what I'm hearing, the tires will break out due to the crazy power to the fronts, so you will probably win based on the crazy wheel slippage, if you get in some smooth shifts FTW.
