I don't see this ending well for you nick.
But if can can port your tb, replace that neck down where your catback and y come together and descreen/and port your maf. Those alone are probably worth .2 to you.

Should be a close race. I'd be willing to bet the better driver comes away with the ET win. The 5.bro will probably out trap you so make sure you practice your launch a few times before running him.
As mentioned above, I'd take some time to focus on the small things like free mods and weight reduction. 315's are actually more tire than you need at your power level and will hurt your acceleration after the launch. Use tricks like over-inflating your front tires and staging shallow to gain those extra hundreths.
