03 TL-S vs Tiburon GT & Legacy GT

on my way to pick up my brother and his wife from Westchester Airport I was getting on Route 15 and was passed by the Tiburon (2003 maybe?) and the Legacy (new model). Of course I took chase and caught up easily. The tiburon was no contest as the Legacy passed him quickly with me behind. The Legacy was comparable to my TL as I could pull a way, but not that quickly from 60mph (3rd gear)...only mod I have is the P2R TB gasket.
I drove more sedately with them in the car for the return trip...

A modded LGT wagon was playing with me through some turns last night. I got behind him and he railed through a 90 degree turn.. He must have been pretty surprised when I matched him. I pulled next to him and we gave each other a head nod before I hung a left turn. They handle pretty well..

tibbys are crap lol, but I do admit they looks pretty sexy (newer models) and come with 6 speeds which is nice. But have horrible power to weight and just suck over all.

going from my 02 TL-S to my new 05 legact gt (2.5 turbo) i can definatly say the lgt will eat the TL off the line and all the way til about 100... after that the TL could possibly pull away due to the lgt's heavy ass AWD... from a dig its a drivers race... (saying that the legacy is stock) just a simple downpipe and stage 2 reflash then our subbies are makin about 265awhp and 305+ awtq so if it is tuned at all you will probably get spanked...
