he has a coldair and an exhaust
those two mods are a perfect setup for the flash
you have a sri and a stock exhaust which is almost opposite from what the flash recommends

if you at least swap the sri for a cai, then you can cut his gap to about 1 car
maybe he's just a better driver but from 2-4th, a 2-3 car gap is a pretty big difference

its a pretty common problem
a stock rsx is not made to handle that much presssure
you need to upgrade with esmm or a whole new mount setup
