What mods do you have now? If you don't have pulleys yet, get some by friday! I really like ASP's aluminum pulleys.

A turbocharged RSX pulled up to me the other day. His turbo was loud too! But he still wasn't quick enough. Dude looked like a *** too, lol. All his teeth were silver.

Nitrous is always fun and fairly quick to install.

Everything else is stock?
I'd get a stall converter.

In that amount of time, a NOS is the only thing that will make a big enough difference.

The pullies are a great mod, I run the same set as Paul, but you have to make up about 2 seconds in the 1320 if both of you are stock. Not only that, if he races you from a roll, he'll walk all over you. You're gonna have to outdig him to make it respectable.

Run 93 octane and bump your timing as high as you can, then dump a lot of water on HIS tires at the line.

You beat a turbo'd eclipse in your stock auto? Sorry but that's hard to believe. I have an auto, and I've had it since it was stock, I would know.

Put the 4.10's in your car, you won't hit the rev limiter. Trust me, you'll be just fine and those are going to make your AODE feel like a beast...



...well sort of.

Especially with o/d off cruising at 50 then giving it a little gas. It makes me feel fast.
