Here's the company that builds the exhaust I ordered. Only a 17lb exhaust system w/cat!

On friday night, me and my girl were cruising around Billings, MT, taking her for a ride in the EVO for the first time.
We rounded up a Altima Nismo SE-R, Mustang 5.0 (Exhaust, Cams, Intake, Ingnition, Tune), Early 90's civic with some sort of swap, and a 05 STI that couldn't really shift well, lol.
Al the races were from a 2nd gear roll, I brakeboosted and waited for them to go, then I followed pursuit. I was suprised how fast I reeled them in. My girlfriend is stoked. haha.
With the Altima, the first race I missed third, finally found it, and continued to pull. When we parted I gave him a thumb and said his car sounded badass, which it did.
The Mustang was pretty fast. Sounded sick too. Last time I was in Billings, I managed to find him in my X-runner, and got 2-3 roll races out of him. He pulled on me, but really not that hard.
The civic was suprisingly fast. About the same speed as the Mustang. He really suprised me because it looked like a ricer.
The STI kid was in love with doing ricer flyby's. He initiated, but it was still difficult to get a real race out of him.
We finally got a real line-up, and I was brakeboosting, couldn't tell if he was. I waited for him to go, and I let her loose. At first I pulled really hard, but my boost tapered off towards 7k, and I just rolled by him. Not pulling hard or anything.
I think what gave me the advantage is the gearing in the EVO, and his shifts weren't the fastest. All I could tell is that he had an exhaust, and his BOV sounded like a bird tweeting.
All in all, it was fun, and including my 250 miles @ 75mph to Billings, and about 10 races, I averaged 27mpg on 91 oct.
