    Default 08 G8 GT vs 06ish STI

    I got my first kill in the G8 last week. This black STI is pacing me at about 40mph and I can tell he wants to run. He goes first, I follow suit. We ran till about 85mph and I had gained about 2 car lengths by the end. At the end I noticed he had at least some exhaust work done. I was impressed I did as well as I did against a modded STI! BTW, I'm bone stock.
