Lower the compression to either 9/9.5/10/10.5 to 1
Get a stronger transmission if you plan to actually use the power.
You will just spin... With those tires, no grip, the power is useless. Grippier tires will strip the trans, so upgrade the transmission and get grippier tires.
Again, that much power without being able to put it to the road is useless and reckless.
You will want a vented hood too for heat control. Upgraded radiator and oil cooler also help a lot.
