Anyone should have the freedom to want more power in their car...regardless if it was a miata, 240sx, or even FRS/BRZ. And you should if those are your goals.
But at the same time, it is a shame because you really start to miss out on the beauty of high performance low output. The little things that made the AE86 bonifide sports car start to blur when you start wanting MORE. Granted many AE86 tuners wanted more power, 20v blacktop is still a popular engine swap.
So I say, 200hp N/A is really more than enough for the purpose of this car. I believe that 250hp supercharged may be pushing the dynamics of the car in its entirety. I would really be cautios in how much power a tuner puts in. Especially if he/she really wants to understand why Toyota built this car and the soul/spirit that is attached to it.

good to see another that understand what they are saying
On another note:
Then this car would be very good for auto-cross and DD?
but if u want to use on track or straight line, then ADD more power or better yet buy something else????
