I could be wrong, but I don't see an auto stang with no major power adders beating a turbocharger eclipse. I could be way off, and you have some nice mods there... but that's a lot to overcome. You sure he's only running 7 PSI?

you would probably get smoked, especially if its AWD. those 1g and 2g DSMs are pretty quick, and there are TONS of free mods you can do to them

is it a 1st gen or 2nd gen eclipse? i would really be careful around them, especially since you have a stock aod, i think he would take you pretty easy. then again i havent seen a stock DSM in quite some time, all the ones in my area are REALLY modded
