Alright so here's my delima, my friend wants to race me. He owns a BMW 330 ci. k, so i here they have 190 horses stock and FWD. Yeah well the kid that told me that is a fuckin idiot! These are the specs.

Engine horsepower 225-hp @ 5,900 rpm
Engine torque 214 lbs.-ft. @ 3,500 rpm
Curb weight 3,285 lbs.

K, so i say " I will get my ass kicked." but i know my car has 140 horse stock. But I have intake exhaust 91 GSR headers (nothin Real special) and greddy racing clutch and some really sticky tires. So I know that i weigh less than him, but is that enough? I really am looking for some un biast oppinions on the subject sence money may be involved. so does anyone know how much horse power my mod's have made? I haven't had it dyno'd. ITs TOMORROW SO I NEED TO KNOW! DO I HAVE A CHANCE?

i wouldnt put your car over 155 hp to the crank. and since its a teg, you're also lacking a serious bit of torque. not to mention (not knowing the year or model or anything) a bit on the chunk side.

translation: dont waste your gas or his and just call off the race. id put him in front of you probably 4-5 car lengths in the 1/8, who knows in the quarter.
