Then you will have to go the way of efficiency. Make sure as much of the crank HP becomes wheel HP.
Cut rotational mass. Light wheels and tires, aluminum hat brakes, carbon or aluminum driveshaft, remove unnecessary drains on the motor like AC and power-steering (no prob with a FMR layout I hope, bloody workout with a Supra), light flywheel and clutch, light crank damper and pulleys, etc... Then unsprung weight, then any extra weight.
I'm currently even looking into doing an electric water pump, controller and thermostat delete on my Supra which should be apparently good for 10-15 wheel HP at high rpm.
