Ok first off no I was not in my C5, the weather looked crappy so I drove my Probe.

89 ford probe gt(same exact car as a old Mazda MX-6 Turbo). I was driving home just chilling with the cruise control on and here comes a DC2 teg with halo's, exhaust, it's dropped, has rims, and ofcourse the mighty DOHC VTEC badge. I dont know if it was a GSR or not honestly but it has the badge for what it's worth lol.

Anyway he comes up on my ass and I dont pay any mind to it just keep motoring along in my old school, out of date, bone stock 89 Probe. Then he gets next to me and starts "goosing it" or pretty much hit the gas....let off, hit the gas...let off. At this point I am thinking.......wow this dipshit is trying to race a 89 Ford Probe lol. But after a minute or so of this same crap I got tired of it. We are doing around 35mph so I slowly just put the car in 3rd gear. The car is bone stock so you cant even hear the exhaust meaning he never knew I did this. Well he keeps doing it and I wait untill he goes to hit the gas again(these people are so predictable) and I let him hit the gas then I did. The car was at about 2800rpm when I did this so it took about 300rpm more to hit full spool(a mighty 6psi lmao) and I am not kidding in saying I pulled a good 3 cars before the end of 3rd gear. Hit 4th and only stayed in it for a second or 2 but he got the idea lol.

After that he would not even get beside me at all. I even attempted to force him to get beside me by doing like 40mph in a 50mph zone and it is like he would match my speed but while 6-7 cars behind me lol.

Good kill, i had the same car but the mazda variant and ran 12psi on the stock turbo without to much issue.  I just added one cold start injector on a hoobs pressure switch to keep the a/f ratio just right at about 11-12psi.

Yeah when i had my car the mazda version i dusted many cars that swore my car was slow. 

3rd gear on full spool was just killer so anyone i took from a roll pretty much got slapped in the face.  I even used to keep up well with the V6 mustangs which i know are not the fastest but hey they were still 2 cylinders larger.
