It's a fast light little car, I plan on doing exhaust,headers,intake and tune and I'm hoping I can take him on both normal street and highway. You're somewhat right on the highway we are neck and neck and then after 160 he just pulls.

Okay dont break your car.
This just came to me....
The cost of doing IHE + tune. Brand name parts that at new cost.
You could slap on a k24 bottom + tune. Stock noise level but pull soo much harder. He wont even know.
Spec's don't convey everything.
The times from manufacturers and forums are the 'best' times achieved ie 1 luck run.
I think what OP is saying is how to consistently do it. DC2R can achieve the recorded time most of the time unless driver error. FN2R however the recorded time is much much harder.
OP apart from driver skills, you need to see what modifications to make it easier + consistent to drive.
As lilthug said, one way is the weight disparity, lighter the car is, easier not to bog down, easier to accelerate, etc etc. Lightened Flywheel, etc.
A stock FN2 gets high 15's-16 down the quarter. a DC2R gets high 15's, and I think this is mostly due to the dig
What really matters is their trap speed, if you have this data then you can compare properly
Isn't it true though? Nobody pushes 100% on the street so it's more a comparison of recklessness.
Op if i had a fn2r and wanted to go fast in a straight line, i would install a rotrex or turbo. it's too heavy to stay NA
fn2r straight line is no where near dc2r.
dc2r can do high 14sec at the drag and fn2r mid 15sec.
