400whp maybe a lot of power at lower speed in lower gear but doing highway pull in 3rd and taller gear you gonna find out you need another 100hp or so to take the car into the 10s
With the twin 400whp will only take it to about a high 11s , Im guessing based on my FM built LS3 NB Miata which currently weigh in at 2667lbs and pull 400whp on a dyno jet
I agree with the "If you're going through the trouble" comment.
