Coming back from Intense this morning after upgrading Kendra'* car I pulled up next to an Eclipse GS-T at a light. He eased out past the white line almost a car length whle waiting for the green...I spotted him the distance. Light turned green I eased into the throttle, feelng the power of the new 3.4 pulley and was instantly beside him. He sped up and I matched him.... Next thing I know I hear him drop to second and floor it squaking the tires a bit so I mashed it and pretty much walked away from him while he madly climbed the gears...to bad it was only a 45 zone i backed off at 70 and he turned off without ever pulling even...ah well
No idea what was in the eclipse but I thought I heard the whine of a turbo...could be wrong though...hard to hear over my own SC whine
