Disappointed with 450hp? Unless your car weighs over 4,500 lbs, 450hp is plenty of power, especially in the US.
If they drop 2-300 pounds, add a full helping of torque, the car will compete in it's natural environment (which is not the drag strip).
I just fear it will cost well into the $80k's (without carbon brakes).
