top end

i raced a suped up civic tonite, and off the line i beat his ass so bad, like four or five car lengths, but then i took off and i thought we were done, so im in fifth gear and he nods me again, so i drop it back in fourth and take off, but this time he is like right next to me like it would have been a picture finish. so my question is how do i mediate this problem?

In the December issue of MM&FF they tested the trickflow intake. moved the powerband up a little. that would help your top end, and would compliment the 3.73 you want to get.

You can drop to second all the way to around 55 ish , I wouldnt drop to fourth unless we started around 100. This is if you have stock gears.
