Default AP1 vs. VW R32

There must be something in the water here in San Diego because I have had 2 street encounters in the last week. Anyways, I was about to merge on the freeway when a blue VW came up on my ass. I kept my speed and he didn't want to pass so I figured he wanted to play a bit. He gets to the lane next to me and revs then takes off. I was in 2nd gear at about 30mph. I punch it and stayed with him through 3rd, pulled a car in 4th then another car in 5th. Shut down at about 105mph with a good 2 cars in front. Slowed down to give a thumbs up but the VW driver didn't even look over. As he sped away I saw it was a R32. Nothing special I guess.

My mods:

Megan Dual exhaust
Berk Test pipe
Gutted airbox with K&N and snorkel
4.77

I raced one, and they are actually pretty quick despite their weight. Also they have one of the sweetest sounding exhausts!
