Induction:

I hear what you're saying and I would agree, but it's really not hard to spot a modified car...even an import.

Lack of gauges, especially a boost gauge on a supposedly supercharged/turbocharged car is a dead giveaway as is stance and rubber. Any 11-second import car is going to be rather obvious in many aspects. A normally 17-second Honda that now has been modified to run 11's will not look like a stock Honda no matter how hard you attempt to hide it's power. The interior would have a roll bar, full gagues (aftermarket of course), a hefty shifter and other noticable extras.

It's O.K. to try and have a friend 'test run' the Honda on the highway (I doubt riceboy will even try to run) but my point is that this dude is a 100% poser and I hate to see Sam (or any Mustanger) waste too much time, gas or thought on him. His ridiculous statements 'out' him as a BS'ing, stupid ricer with no clue about anything. Anyway; I'm sure riceboy will never, ever actually race Sam's 'Stang. If he does, expect a hilarious blowout as the 'Stang leaves Honda-boy about 25 car-lenghts behind.
