88 SE vs late model Cavalier!

As I am driving home from work I am stuck at a light not even a block from work. I slowly watch as the temp gauge gets up and mind my own business. Just before the light turns green I notice blue headlights come flying up on my ***. The car quickly jumped into the lane next to me and flew by. It is a cavalier riced out like you wouldn't believe. I slowly caught up as my car was not warmed up yet and waited for her to see what the chick would do. Now I am in my SE which is pretty modded. I am very well know as the loud *** mazda. She is driving a lowered 2000 or so cavalier with big chrome rims, purple flames, and 2 Huge mufflers nearly bigger than my single N1. As I followed her I finally was warmed up and the road finally cleared so I hopped into the lane next to her and sure enough she goes WOT before I even get near her. I was only going about 35 so I dropped into 2nd and flew by and shut down at 70 as I shifted into 3rd. I slowed down to see if she would realize that it was no contest but instead she did the dumbass ricer flyby so I just went home. Not even worth my time. I'm sure when and if we ever meet she will have loads of excuses for me. Just my daily redline .

Her mods, from what I could tell:
Cut springs
Dual fartcans
Rims that way as much as my car

My mods:
Apex-i N1 Cat-Back Exhaust
Bonez HiFlo Cat
Bonez HiFlo Intake
Bonez Street/Comp Clutch and Pressure Plate
MD Racing Fuel Computer
RP Main Underdrive Pulley
Racing Beat Anti-Sway Bar set
Racing Beat Single Outlet Header w/ ACV Block-off Plate
Tokico Illuminas 5-way adjustable struts
Ground Control Coilovers
17 inch Eagle Alloy Series 193 wheels
Wolf AF1 Air/Fuel Meter
6 port rpm activation mod w/rpm switch
Aluminum Hood
Auto Diff
90' Trans
Suspension Techniques front lower control arm bushings
Stock ports .

That's all I need! Maybe even get it boosted.

Already got a header. Maybe even true dual.

No way! The n1 is lighter than the dual setup.

It has a bonez flywheel I believe but the clutch itself is stock, but you'll never know until you take it apart. Just upgrade the clutch and motor. Have you done anymore work to the car?

New tires. Fixed the interior wiring, e-fan, and wiper switch. Otherwise it's just general maintenance until the motor is rebuilt and streetported.

It is a fairly quick car and handles nice. And yes it does have a header. Hope to chill with you again James.
