The power is just fine, the car is 200HP/ > 2,800lbs = 14:1, and with a 53/47 weight distribution, that's just fine for someone who wants a sporty car and can be danced on the edge grip/drift and be a little forgiving if taken to a proper facility to test that. Adding more power is only going to ruin the handling characteristics IMO. The point of this car is not speed, but handling in spirited driving/autocross/test n tune.

No one needs a rally car in Jersey, there's no where around here to do it, and unless you've attended a rally school, I say don't attempt to go down a back road and attempt a Sebastian Loeb. Though I do like Evo's/Subie's, and I thought about owning one, their use around here is moderate at best since we do have bad winters, but unless you compete in auto crossing, or track on occasion, which 9 out of 10 owners do not, they are pointless to own.
