Most likely youre gonna get burned... Have some fun tho. Represent the TL!!! Jus add some mods and you should keep up with him. Headers/ Intake will definetly add to your top end and you should pull 70 mph +! Those pullies help a lot too! I have the AEM TRU POWER pulleys and I raced someone with just intake and exhaust. I beat him by a car length all three times.

If you wanna hear something funny, I raced a Subaru Impreza WRX Wagon w/ light mods ( headers, intake, exhaust, rims, blowoff). The guy blew me off the line by 2 cars( AWD HEH!) Then I caught up to him head on and we took it to 95 and let off. Raced again it was a tie....


NEVER UNDERESTIMATE YOUR V6, these little turbo four bangers(stock) cant even hang!

Anyone agree that stock exhaust is faster??? I dunno, I feel faster off the line. 2 3/4 inch piping you just lose too much bottom end. Single exhaust is a little bit faster but I dont feel right with just one exhaust :yack: gimme some feedback yall!
