I wouldnt be suprised if you could beat him now depending on what gears you have. I would say go for a set of gears, one of the best bang for the buck mods.

Any small mod and I think it's all over. Get gears and that will make a huge difference. Or if you have an extra $400, then get a nitrous kit and call it a day. Add about 100 more HP and be done with it

I don't think your going to stand a chance down low. Up high I think you'll take him, but most people don't like racing until they reach 150mph. While your car is great and better for upgrades, keep in mind ford didn't to a great job on designing most of the parts for power, horrible heads, horrible intake. I think you could take him with heads & intake. (if that doesn't do it put a cam in) Or you could go with nitrous.
As of now I think your best bet is to race him from a decent roll.. 45, 55.

I think you have a better chance from a light. Top end i thing he might beat you. Depending on the year those maximas have 255 hp 3.5l. Torque steering is a bitch on that car from a dig.
