i lost to an eclipse once. he had a T-60-something and a built motor...
it actually was a really close race, but i lost by about a car from 0-100 after jumping 1/2 car on the launch. he then proceeded to race this punk in an sti that weaved up to use, and spanked the living crap out of him from a roll. we laughed about it at the next light...good times.
Sounds like a nice setup, you must've had a good one yourself to stay that close.
he spun a lot off the line. that thing was fast as FU(K from a roll though. i think he said he ran mid 12s with it, but i don't know how much power he put down. that turbo DEF had some lag though, cuz i was startin to pull away and then BAM! was the boost. the sti he beat was stock btw...or so he said (yelled something to the effect of "i could kick your azz if i weren't stock"). that comment is why we got a chuckle at the light haha.

ok, so i know nothing about imports aftermarket, but i remember him having an injen racing sticker on his front passenger side fender. i just looked it up, and realized they make turbos. so.. maybe it was a turbo. he didn't seem to start pulling real hard until 3rd. it makes sense.

Well, at least you are a good sport about it.

I'll let you in on something, the NONTURBO 95-99's are a woman's car, I wouldn't be too quick to talk down on the other models.
I don't mean because of the motor, I mean just because of the looks. I think s2000's are girl looking cars, and miatas. It may just be me...
You think everything except for your dad's car there is a girl car.

They also make intakes/filters. More likely of those two than an injen turbo. If it had an RS/GS tag it still might of been turbo. Hahn racing and Star make turbo kits for the n/a cars. You can usually hear the turbo or bov, but there are intakes that whistle.....but im just babbling now...so yea.

This can be easily fixed, I've got $815 in mods on mine and should be hitting high 12's, bottom 13's.
