Default Will I win this race?

I am going to the track August 6th. My buddy has been talkin smack claimin that his wrx gay is going to hand me my a$$. He doesn't know my times. I just want to get your opinion cause I think my naturally aspirated black beast is going to pee in his butt. He has a down pipe, blow off, and intake. I am not scared, I think I will beat him by @ least half a second. What do you all think.

How much boost do those produce stock? Oh well I am still not scared. I am going to get my slicks rev it up to 4 grand and dum the clutch for my first run. I think it all comes down to driver and I can't let him get that launch. Gosh I need cams and longtubes. p.s. nomo, can you respond to the 15x10 question on which rim I should get? You, wht GT, daniel, and md are the best of help.

Dude your gonna smack him down. I wouldnt worry if your running 12s Aleady imagine what the slicks are gonna do to you 60 ft times. Also even if say he does run a mid 12.5 and you run a 12.6 youll still win cause of you MPH. Last time i ws at the track this guy was running 2 tenths slower then me but my Trap speed was 5 mph and handed him a loss everytime.Also i raced a 2004 STI while back with my bonesstock LX 5.0 and only loss by 2 car legths ... Mind you i was gaining and he had alot of mods already. I say you win ! Not cause you own a mustang just from what i have seen at teh track and street. Reply back as soon as you can. Hey if you do loose big deal those WRX are some fine auto's. But i dont see you loosing this one. Good Luck and good job at keeping it at the track.
