Not really all that impressive, but:
I was coming back from work late on Tuesday night (2 am) at the intersection of reston pkwy and 7 (DC metro folks may know where this is) and I pulled up next to this truck who had its window rolled down and was talking to the 240sx in front of me. The guy in the truck looked back at my car and pointed it out to the guy in the 240sx in front. I heard them both laughing - at what, I dont know. Anyhow, the light went green and the guy in the 240sx took off on to 7 going west. It took a few seconds to catch up to him, and then we were both squared off at the next red light. He stayed about half a car length behind me, so I couldnt really signal a race and I didnt think he was going to try and take off again.. The light turned green and he spun his tires and took off and got a few car lengths ahead of me. I wasnt ready, but at the end of second gear I was already a car length in front of him and by the time i topped out 3rd gear (85 mph or so) he was about 7 or 8 car lengths behind me. Him and his truck friend dropped way back and avoided pulling up next to me for the rest of the trip back. Feel the wrath of my banshee possesed drill sounding supercharged 4 cyl! Muahahahhaha!
I wasn't sure why they were laughing, but I know why I was after 3rd gear 
Anyhow, I've got a 95 LS 2 door, frost white. JRSC 6psi, comptech catback, airmass headers, chopped iceman intake, accell wires, ngk br7e-11 plugs gapped .038, energy suspension motor mount inserts, short shifter, jr walboro fuel pump, enkei 16" rf-1, nitto nt450, powerslot cross drilled/slotted rotors (SUCK), axxis metal master pads, rear upper strut tower brace, boost gauge in the dimmer knob location and led a/f meter in the cruise control button location. wow, I really never noticed how much I've done to my car so far..
The fluctuating idle has somewhat gone away, but now it appears to like to idle high (800-900 rpms). I haven't bled the cooling system yet or adjusted the idle.
It seemed to be backfiring around 2.5k rpms, but then I replaced the plugs and it still was backfiring. I reset the ECM and it has gone away.
I'm going to get it dyno'd tomorrow, I'll post them when I get back..
Just an update...
