Yeah maybe it was putting down like 5-10 more horses, but if you didnt have supporting mods such as a high quality header, port matched intake manifold/head etc. Your engine has 1000 miles on it and his is 10 years old and 100,000+ lol... Looks like a GSR tranny or Sir b16 tranny is in order, or maybe a newer b series trans with hydraulic conversion lol... But even with a trans I think strats car would still beat you. It's abnormally fast or something is wrong with your engine... Compression check itAnd ya, it was a da

Oh, I definitely need the shorter gearing, but my engine checks out great, that thing is solid. My buddy that helped me has been building hondas for years, I have no doubts in the performance of it. I had the type r b16 header on that old one plus intake and 2" exhaust, street tuned on chrome. But that's the past, I'd rather focus on my new one. I'm rebuilding a b17 trans right now with a bunch of goodies, and Cole can back me up on my car now, it's much better now that it's tuned right, so I'm pretty sure I'll fair much better next time. But I'll still lose I'm sure, based on the gearing. Kinda hard to race when your knock sensor throws a check engine light and cuts out vtec, and vtec didn't kick until 5800, now it's at ~5000, so I'm not falling out anymore when I shift. I could only do 2nd & 3rd before my cel light came on and said bye bye to vtec. So I removed the knock sensor and the issue went away.
