Default My03 vs 05

The other day I saw this s2k and we both took the highway. So we decided to do a few pulls on average 60-90mph he was ahead by a fender and after 90mph I would start walking away, we did about 5-7 pulls. 40-110mph we were pretty much even and again I started pulling and walking away after 90mph. I am a bit surprised I wasn't ahead the whole time considering my mods.

My03
141000 miles
K&N intake, PLM header, 70mm Berk HI FLO Cat, Invidia q300 70mm exhaust.

05 S2k had HKS dual exhaust and the rest stock with 70,000 miles approximately.

Ap2 guys have to make a early shift to 5th at 100mph where as the ap1 can go to 118mph in 4th..
