Default SRT-4 vs MY04 vortech supercharged

My mods are stock vortech kit, 4.44 gears, invidia exhaust. I am driving home from work this morning. When I got off the exit I notice something behind me with a hood scoop and front mount intercooler. Then it pulls next to me and it was a Yellow SRT-4. I notice while we are stopped he had some gauges and exhaust as the only mods I could see. So the light turns green but we have traffic in front of us so I dont get on it. WE are making a left hand turn and he gooses it alittle bit and then takes off. At this point I am thinking Ohh yeah have a little fun. Then he starts weaving through traffic like a mad man so I just stay back. I am not for endangering other peoples life acting all stupid like that. So a few miles down the road luck would have it we get caught at a light next to each other but with two cars in front of us. The light turns green and we both start slowly. I switch to second and we start winding out second. Now we have plenty of room so Iam about 6500 rpm in second he hits it then I follow suit and wind out second shift into third pretty hard then wind out third and by that time I have about 1.5 cars on him. I look back in the rear view mirror and see his girlfriend laughing at him( kind of like mine when I lose a race). So he rolls up again and I slow down and we run again and then the same results happen, but this time he passes traffic in the center turn lane like a crazy fool. I was like what an idiot. Ohh well I guess he wont race any s2000's anymore.

Yeah if they do just a few mods they can be troublesome. If you go FI you should have no problem.
