If you are running correctly and decently tuned, you should waltz all over him.

You don't even need to launch and walk the STI. IMO.
I think the STI is going to blow the motor with that much boost.

keep us tuned in for the results.

you should definitely win with your mods even un-tuned
if tuned right you should beathim by atleast 4 cars.

i'm guessing your rev limit has been raised since you have upgraded springs and retainers and running AEM EMS ( hope your tuned ) 8500 or beyond?

on pump gas 93-94 octane no more than 22psi----360-380whp
race gas 25-26psi should get you over 400whp easy.

If you dont walk all over him, I really dont know what to make out of the situation. With all that mods, you can launch aggressively and I predict that you should start pulling on him by 2nd. Going to 3rd and 4th will be an embarrasement for him. You will win, I'm betting 10 bucks on this. Any sti owners wanted to challenge me?

I hate these "can I win threads". Its all speculation and it depends so much on the driver its stupid.

You should ask "Can your CAR win" and in that case sure, it looks like you have more mods. But can you win I'm not sure cuz I don't know how you drive.
