Define full exhaust. Cat? Header? Check to see if your 5th/6th ports are working. Well actually Im pretty sure they arent, wire those open and race him again.

Definately get a header. Racing Beat is your best bet. But youre going to need alot more mods to beat a GSR, theyre pretty quick.

block off your filter from your hot engine bay if you havent done so already. Remove everything you dont need, a/c, ps, ect. Nitrous is a good bang-4-your buck mod, even though its not my style.

stole my words right out of my mouth, my brother raced a civic with a GSR motor, cams, forged pistons rods, pretty much everything besides a turbo and my brother beat him by about two cars, that was with a turbo back exhaust air filter, S5 turbo and a fuel cut, all in all about $1100 of stuff
