...if he spanked a C6 ZO6 as badly as you've implied in your first post, you'll probably need at least 650 HP at the crank to run with him, and that will cost some serious $$.

If it's a real Silvia, then I retract my statement.
Silvia in Japan = 240SX in the US

Run him up to 180 and see if he can hang. I had a 240sx previously. Fun little car for sure. Also swapped out the domestic 2.4 liter engine in a friends car for the 2.0 liter turbo engine. Fun times.

Sounds like you already KNOW who has the faster car and handicapping him (pump gas) is kinda weak; because that doesn't really prove anything. If you REALLY need to beat this guy, send your ride to Protomotive with a $20K check 
Otherwise, just race him for fun and be prepared for a loss. I personally wouldn't modify my car just for the sake of beating a Sylvia. Goodluck either way; could be a lotta fun!
