2.2 LS vs 2006 Mazda 6

Got some new competition in the school parking lot. Some Sophomore's parents bought him a new Mazda 6 Base Model with tints and 17" Rims. Hypothetically speaking how close of a race would it be between my balt and his Mazda6? I have a CAI, Sportlines, Falken Tires, and lighter wheel setup than stock.
Any predictions?

The 6 has more power, but more weight. Should be close. Try it and find out!

You should have no problem pulling on him...but don't expect to get a bunch of car lengths. I was in front of one while he hung in by my rear quarter panel when I had my 2.2

So I'm guessing its a Mazda 6i, the one with the 2.3l engine.. I would have to say you should have the advantage..But go try it out

I beat a V6 mazda6 when i owned my SVT Focus..So, I'd say you'd definetely win if you're racing a 4 cyl mazda6.
