Though I personally have opted not to suffer with FWD anymore, it can still be fun and I've defended it many times against those that say it can't compete. I've even cited that same video to illustrate the point. However, I've included the caveat: the original mini had an 80" wheelbase and weighed ~1400 pounds (never mind that the mini in that video is far from stock).

Anyway, someone at NASIOC asked for this and since it seems relevant, here's a combined plot for the K20Z3 and FA20 (different dynos and conditions, so FWIW):
