Well, not sure what mods you have. But, with some 4.10's, drag radials, and some minor suspension, you'll be beating him out of the gate. Spray some giggle gas off the line and your car will make his feel like a stock Honda the next time you ride in it. (exaggeration)

Who is this friend? I'll buy it if you don't want it lol.

Subframe connectors and a strut tower brace will make your car more fun to drive as well
Actually, it is recommend you remove the passenger UCA when a torque-arm is not yet installed

This is according to Griggs website, but is a short-cut in my opinion. I think that if one wants to go the distance, install an MM TA at the same time as a PHB or Watts-Link.

+1

if you're looking more towards street/strip racing, definitely swap out the gears to 4.10s first, then follow with all the stuff up above.

All of the above will help but he's got a lot more rubber on the ground pulling him out of the hole than you do. Try tires first. Them move on to the other things.

It feels fast cause he has boost...drop a supercharger or turbo in and it will feel the same + more. I have always loved riding in turbo cars.
