RE: EVO's AND STI's
I've raced an evo with intake & exhaust on a straight road for literally 2 miles. He got me bad off the line, I spun through 1st & 2nd, caught in 3rd & started creaping up on him, passed him & we let off way down the road. When I let off he was about 5-7 car lengths behind me. If my speedo wasnt' broken I could tell you how fast. I was in my yellow on the tach in 5th gear.

RE: EVO's AND STI's
^^^^ THat sounds about right. By buddy who had a stock 95 kept up with one on the highway from a 40 roll. He stayed consistanly about 4 cars behind him from about 40 up to about 100mph before they both let off. Not bad, i mean a totaly stone stock 95GT. So, thats no to bad.
BUt i launch mine at 4K and i get about a 1.6-1.7 60 and they still get me by like 3 cars from the line with a driver who knows what he's doing, but by the time im at the top of 2nd gear/ beginning of 3rd i run them down pretty quickly.
Dont race them in the 1/8th if your only lightly modded, because it doesnt really give you enough time to catch them before the end. I only run the 1/8th around here because its the only track, i dont know why all tracks dont extend out to a 1/4 but an 1/8th is better than nothing.

RE: EVO's AND STI's
Knowing them they probably at the least have a turbo back exhaust..Up pipe, down pipe, bla bla bla all the way to the back... I heard that helps with the spooling of the turbo. if u wanna check out what the cars look like check out their page... they have more cars than on this page though... http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...ndid=112172778.......... If u go through their friends you could find a few more...

My 05 STi (all stock) and my 94 GT are about even in the quarter mile.
The STi ran a 13.6 @ 99mph and a 1.8 sec. 60ft.
The GT ran a 13.5 @ 103mph and a 1.9 sec. 60ft.
My STi weighs 3,300 lbs.
My GT weight 3,440 lbs.

high 13's to low 14's is actually a decently fast car for the streets. this those times you'll usually beat most of anything on the roads.

^^ Agree'd, only thing you'd have trouble with is probably, LS1's, lightly modified LT1's, Mach 1's....some of the newer hardware.
But anything most 16-19 yr old kids like us can afford, you'd kill alot of it and run with most of it.
What you need is a good 12 sec car
Almost everything you would run with.

RE: EVO's AND STI's
Id just have the nitrous set to the biggest shot that you can safely run and go for it. With your mods you oughtta be able to take out a lightly modded one. A stage 2 STI makes about 300awhp, and thats just exhaust downpipe and tune. Id bet they all have at least that. Racing is fun, id do it. Just dont put money on it...
