Your Right it was about 240whp and had a pretty agressive suspension setup, (swapped out each day for the event) I can make the Horsepower that's easy, the turbo kit can put me in the 250-260 whp range, and torque I have it ALL over a k20SC however Mouton suspension that might be a little harder to get. but a good set of coil overs should be 95% of their performance, plus I actually understand how to tune a car, as for driving, a time trial is just that, A professional race driver does not have THAT much advantage over a privateer, unlike a real road race where budget determines how deep you are willing to carry a pass.
