Was on the way home from work yesterday when I ran across a Turbo Eclipse, he would speed past me a few times then slow down and I would pass him this went on for a few miles I just acted as if I was paying no attention. We finally got lined up at a red light he reving his car so I started to powerbrake just a bit and the race was on!
The light went green he was spinning and I was spinning I had him by 2 car lenghts, it stayed that way until I let off at about 80mph, I was coming up on more traffic.
A little further down the road we got side by side again at about 40mph he hit it a tad quicker than me and was out on me by a car length or so. I couldn't pull'em I checked the boost gauge and was pegging 18lbs so I let off and let'em go.

Even though I was on pump gas and a street chip, the guy had a pretty fast car!
 
good kill

Turbo Eclipses, Talons, Lasers, and Galants, which are all DSMs, can be made pretty fast with only bolt ons... I've seen a couple quick ones that were AWD running low 12's to high 11's with a ported and clipped 16G turbo, FM intercooler, exhaust, DP, K&N airfilter, injecters, and boost controller... Also, I've heard that they can run a good amount of boost on pump gas, so he may have been running about 20lbs or more boost when u raced him... Not bad for a little 4cyl:cool:
