Yep. I was beat by my own TII in my own R1.
R1 had Efini y-pipe, DP and RB cat-back. Turned a best 1/4 time of 13.58@102.8mph. Running about 10psi boost.
TII had full exhaust, cone filter and fuel cut defenser. It also was a little lighter than stock, at the time of the "race" it weighed in at about 2600-2650lbs. It has turned a best of 13.425@105.5mph. Running about 9psi boost.
From a ~4mph roll with my friend driving the R1 the TII pulled ahead by about 1 car length to 100mph. After the TII hit about 100mph the R1 just pulled away.
The R1 now has a M2 IC and a intake, the TII won't be able to hang again
.
The R1 absolutely smoked the TII in any type of autocross competition.

Thanks for the reply's guys. The closet i've got to beating a 3rd gen was holding with it about half a car behind him. He had a street ported motor, and exhaust. But i have never beat one out right...

I don't think you'll find many here that will ADMIT to being beat!! Eveyone is a race god here!! No one EVER loses!! Ahhhh.... if only life were really that good!!! I got beat by a fully built gutted hatchback on slicks the whole deal!! BUT I have not been beat by a T2. Haven't seen one to race out here yet. Just cause you have more power doesn't mean you'll win. Got to get it to the ground to be effective.
I got beat on the 1/4 by a TII. But it definately wasn't a stock turbo'd one...
I ran a 12.4 @ 117 and he was lifting running high 11's.
Can't remember what he ran the second time, but the ****** was faaaaaaaaast.
