It depends on what he's gonna do as far as boost levels. He'll get like 260 rwhp at 11 psi, which is most common. And I'm assuming you're a new edge GT from your name. He should keep up, but depending on your mods, you probably still have the advantage.

^^^^^^^^^^^^Ummm................... He has a 95.

He'll be anywhere from between 180 rwhp - 220 rwhp, it all depends on the boost.

In short, you'll win 9 out of 10 races because of the massive torque advantage you'll still have, only way you'll loose is if you suck at driving.

It all depends on what he's doing. You can't really just say "supercharger" and get accurate numbers. I doubt he'll walk you, but it might be close. If it were a split port V6 he'd have you, but since it's a 95 it's got about 40 less HP stock.

Oh, well with those being your mods you're still gonna rape hime, I'm betting you're kicking out around 270 or so rwhp running mid to low 13s in the 1/4.

Damn, not too shabby for a guestimation.

In short, he'll need much much much more to beat you.
