I didn't buy mine for that reason. I want a fun, great handling daily driver with track ability 5-6 times a year. If people want a HP increase which would be minimal if they do, they need to research this car more. Those that have buyers remorse because of discovering this is not a straight line performance car are at their own fault for not researching or even test driving before purchase. I'd say HP will increase lightly but I wouldn't expect anything over 15hp. Changes in head design, intake, trans gear ratios, mapping change would be done before any FI.

But this car is not engineered for the consumer with high HP since the buyer can do that on their own.
