    LoL. The riced out one (fenders and all) lost in the 1/8th. Looks like he may have lost on the 1/4 too to the relatively stock looking mirage.

    Always nice to have a carwash (@ 1:20)

    The turbo mirage at the end...

    hahaha what a dawg!

    I still love my Mirage. I bought mine for its efficiency. Although, I m=wonder if I were to replace my muffler with resonator one if I would bet both better gas mileage as well as horsepower?

    Typically, with low hp vehicles, the stock muffler is not too restrictive. If you do replace the muffler, at least keep the stock exhaust pipe. The stock exhaust pipe is usually the best to keep a high exhaust velocity, without being too restrictive at high rpms. This high exhaust velocity helps to scavenge exhaust gasses out of the cylinders on the exhaust stroke, which in turn helps to increase low end torque. This is why you see a loss in power at lower rpms when people put too large of an exhaust pipe on a motor, with only a small gain in the high rpm area.

    That was the slowest, yet most entertaining, drag racing I've ever watched. 10/10 would let them wash my car.
