His turbo spooled up before my car got into its meaty power range and he beat me. Granted I was a gear down from what I should have been. This makes me curious. What do your gears run out at? I know mine is
1st=40 2nd=65 3rd=100 4th=130 and 5th..well 153 at 4100rpm lol

Sorry I cannot link it as I am a newbie still and am walking out the door. I'll link it after I get 3 new posts.

My car has Intake headers and exhaust. His car is bone stock. Just bought it that day. There will be a rematch soon.
and as for times I only know my 1/8 mile. I ran an 8.71@80mph on street tires. Not sure what a full launch out of you guys is but I'm sure it is good. Anyways enjoy the vid guys and there will be updated vids soon.

I guess your friend isn't a believer in breaking in a new car...
