Question S197 vs. Integra updated w video

So my friend who has a 1997 acura integra LS wants to race me...
It'll be a 1/4 mile at the track.
His integra is stock but its a manual

I have a 05 S197 4.0 automatic with pypes duals mid mufflers and an H pipe, tokiko D specs, ebiach pro kit and a bama 93 Race tune.

How should this race go?

***UPDATED****
So he had some mods too, headers and complete exhaust system, CAI+Tune
We ended up not going to the track...I wanted to be he didn't, yah we street raced but it wasn't in the city so it was kinda safe but still stupid i know.

Here's the vid

don't forget he is only running a 4.0 V6, not a 4.6 3v

OP, i think it'll be a pretty good race, but you should win.

Take into consideration that it's about a 1000 pounds lighter than you. And for every 100 pound advantage he has on you. You'll need an aditional 10-15 HP to move every extra hundred pounds he has on you. Do the math. Also him being stick to your auto. He'll be able to wring his ride out. I see the Acura winning to be honest.

I think he would take the integra LS. Considering how old the car is it prob has lost much power. An integra ls stick 1996 was my first car in high school. It was a pos by the time I hit college, then i swaped out the head for a b16 with some type R valve train. If this was 10 years ago and the integra was brand new, might be a diff. story.
