You and me both, on the power front. Not sure I want to deal with all of the issues of FI on track. That's essentially $10k to do it right, and that's stock internals... I love the car, but man it's really depressing catching every friggin thing through the corners and watching them disappear down the straights. Or even more lovely, they finally give a point by and don't lift... It's great fun when people come up to you at the end of a session and poke around the engine bay looking for the turbo. The look on their face when they realize it's NA are fantastic. That is probably my favorite thing that happens at the track, it gets serious respect running down Corvettes and STIs and the like
FWIW my car with header/tune and a bunch of other mods is a LOT quicker than a stock car in a straight line. I'm not sure which is worse, spending a ton of money to gain ~20hp at the wheels and still watch other cars drive away, or being stock and even slower.
