Exactly! This is a list of things that could fix without increasing engine power. Another thing could be to change the rear drive shaft with a thicker one. Under hard acceleration the car is not transferring currently power smoothly. Of course, all these changes would mean extra development effort and parts with a higher cost. This could increase the car's base price or not?
