Default About to get supercharged, comptect

Alright men, I am in the US Army, one of my soldiers just bought the 350z (base model), my best friend has a 2000 Boxter. They are challenging my S2k something awful. I have a comptech CAI, but in about a month I will be supercharged (comptech). Question, should I beat them now or later?
Airborne all the way...
S has 12, 000 miles running smooth .

The boxster not a problem. The 350 z is wierd....Some lose some win. With the comptech you will spank both by several (4 or 5) car lengths to 100

Thanx for the love and I plan on buying from comptech. I think I will take the boxster out in the morning saving the Z for later.

I've never done it, but I would imagine the rush from jumping beats the car thing anyday. Is that so? Ah, the need for speed!

My best friend drives a 350z and we've run together alot. It is VERY tricky. The problem with our car is that we don't have a lot of power on the lower end of the rpm band, (as I'm sure you know). I'm slamming the pedal into the floor and waiting for v-tec to kick in, and in the mean time he's pulling on me. Thus, when i finally do get that v-tec rush, he's got two car lenghts on me. The key is in how you launch, I haven't figured out how to get a good launch without smelling my clutch horribly afterwards.

Let us know how it turns out.

PS- I'm in the air force, lemme know where you get the SC, I want one and can't afford one.
