Default 08 bullitt vs tiburon on juice

so i just bought my new bullitt a few days ago and was driving it around with no real reason except driving it around. I was just on my way to go home and I turn off onto the main road andI see a little blue tiburon just up ahead hitting a red light.

so we do a casual roll off the light and i start to give it a lil gas and he pins it, so i stomp my foot down climb through first and second and instantly put a few cars on him, and lucky me just up the road we both hit the next red. he rolls down his window and yells well guess im going to have to use the 75 shot this time (he then purged his nos) i laugh and say well guess im going to have to use my v8 this time.

Light turns green and he stays close for about half of first gear and then i just keep pulling on him, I start to slow down he rices by but gives me a big smile and a thumbs up and a Nice car!

and custom made sport tuned suspension, and an engine calibration that allows 500 more rpm, front stabalizer bar and a beefed up 8.8 rear end, all being stopped by bigger brakes

The suspension just uses a few parts from the FRPP catalog, the Shelby GT has better suspension still. The FRPP tune is still conservative and most mail order tunes are more aggressive. The brakes are the same size, they just use different pads. The rear-end is the same as the GT, just uses different gears.

Did that Tiburon have any other mods done to it that you could see/hear?

Sorry, but I hate how some Bullitt owners (not trying to say the OP) are getting on this huge ego trip. Same thing happened with the last Bullitt.
