Default Playing with a turbo civic si

On DM the other night I was coming back home on DM when this riced out impulse is reving behind me at a light. Once the light turns green I accelerate moderately and I watch for him to whip into an open lane. Not suprisingly he does and attempts the fly by... I drop down to second, side step the clutch and the race is over before it begain.
While I was doing this there was a black civic with dark red graphics on the side of it. It had SI on the back of it but Im not sure if it actually was..
He guns it a few times behind me and I let him pass. Im listening to his turbo as goes by both times and it sounded fucked up. It had a quiet blow off valve.. I dont know how to describe the sound. Like a pi-da-da in rapid succession for 1/2 a second. Evenutally I dropped second next to him... the Z torqued over to the left so I had to compensate by turning the steering wheel slightly to the right. Once i slow down he passes me. I caught up to him one more time and coasted at about 40-45mph next to him ready to actually race since cars were far enough ahead but he didnt go.

I remeber a White 3rd gen Eclipse (with eclipse written on the bumper) with no exhaust and a loud ass blow off valve.

That civic possibly could have had a fake turbo on it. It was still pretty quick... seemed like a high 14 second car from when he passed.
