With your mods you should smoke him. You won't even have to launch hard. My friend has a '00 Type R, and stock for stock against my GT I could just walk him (atleast 5-10 cars) until we got close to 100, then the gap remained about the same at higher speeds. He now has several bolt-ons: cold air intake, header, hi-flow cat, midpipe, and catback. I could still beat him in my stock-motored '00 by several carlengths up to 1/4 mile trap speeds, in which I ran a best of 14.2 with a horrible 2.3 60 ft. time at the track (couldn't launch it when I first got it). So your buddy's car shouldn't be any quicker than mid-high 14s if he knows how to drive it.
