Well Lucky the question is how lucky do you feel. Its going to take a lot more than a lightly modded Cougar to even keep up with me much less beat me. So keep on modding your Cougar, even add that turbo , for you never know you might get lucky.

Since there's no such thing as a 1998 Si, I would probably guess that you raced a lowly Sohc EX or Dx, with maybe a Air filter and a big muffler. So don't get so hyped up over small fry, the big one got away.

I'am wondering if you are going to upgrade the internals, like low compression forged pistons and stonger rods, etc. If you do this, and go with the turbo option, you will make good power.

keep me posted on your build up, later
