The stock tranny will be your worry spot. There are some that last at 400whp and some that break at 250whp. It's all in how you drive it. I'm not too sure about the USDM 2.0L and how much hp the stock motor can take, but I'm pretty sure it's less than what the USDM 2.5L can handle.

You should go wagon! I <3 my wagon, you get people saying weird stuff. "Did the wagon ever come in 5spd?" or "Too bad the wagon never came turbo charged".
Plus all the looks from a wagon with a 4 inch can hanging off the back of it.
Love it.
