I'm looking forward to strapping a turbo on this thing one day once it's paid off and the warranties are up. Then the fun begins.

I think "enough" is under 11 lbs/HP, so that'd be about 250 HP for this car. It's enough because at 11lbs/HP female passengers squeal when I stomp the loud pedal. The torque needs to be up here too at 250+ lb-ft. This car is just a wee bit too sackless- but that just means we have something to work towards!
