13B twin turbo, street port, 3mm apex seals, pettit ecu, 13 psi, pettit 3" down pipe/cat-back, dynamax 4" muffler, 17x7's.
Last Monday, my friend in his automatic '92 Prelude with an H22a SI wants to race the RX to quote "see how badly I beat him." Anyways, we start from a 25 mph roll because I don't want to punch it out of the hole and swing my *** end into his car. Since I let him start the race he got a short jump, and by the end of 2nd I had a car's distance on him. By 80 mph I had about 5-7 car lengths on him.
A few days ago I'm driving down I-595 when a white GT Mustang with exh and potentially other mods revs on me and takes off. As he's "hauling ***" down the road I catch him quickly and blow-off 4th gear in his ear, then continued to blow the doors off of his Ford and he eventually gave up. Funny because homeboy thought he'd impress his g/f in the car, and when I saw them next she was laughing at him. lol...
The very next day I'm traveling north on I-75 when a silver RX-8 flies by me at about 80 so I catch up and get next to him. He starts the race and takes off, but my boosted motor is obviously a win in this scenario and I pulled him pretty good. Not much of a race starting from that speed but fun none-the-less. We ended by throwing each other a thumbs up in mutual rotary respect and I headed home.
My first 3 kills. 3-0 for the Rex.

It must be so fun to roast Mustangs.
They all think because their exhaust is badass (which it is, I'm not arguing there) that their cars are equally badass. Wrong!

There is something wrong with your car. Those mods + 25mph roll on 7 INCH of width = sideways.
But um... Good kills.
