RSX vs 5.0 (1 race from a roll)

Earlier today i was cruising in the backroads in the 5.0 and on my way home a black car pulls up behind me. I was going around 40 MPH (got 4:10 so my spedo doesnt work) or so, and this guy must have been going around 55-60 from how fast he pulled up behind me.
But anyway, I instantly know it is an RSX because its my favorite car (that and the SRT-4) and from the looks of how close he was to my bumper, it was easy to see that he wanted to race. The next thing i know, he pulls in the left lane and guns it (the only mods i knew he had were exhaust but he probably had more because he definently seemed faster that my friends stock RSX), so i drop it down to drive and do the same accept by this time his tail lights were by the front of my door but as soon as i reached 3000 RPM or so, i started pulling on him pretty good and I pulled up even with him and almost started to pass him when... MY ENGINE STARTS COFFING and i feel myself quit excelerating (im running EXTRIEMLY rich right now and i need a tune really bad) and he slowly pulls ahead and takes lead. After that i decided to slow it down and next thing i knew, i lost sight of him around the bend in the road we were approaching.

It was a fun race, im pretty sure i would have taken him if my car was tuned and everything, i know i would of had him from a stop, at least i lost to an awesome car.

idk if this is the answer, but if the speed goes on rpm in a certain gear, then the 4.10s will change the rpm...
