I only have to match 200 watts, so about 20 ft/lbs more than stock.

LMAO, yeah I'm sure I've beaten better cars than that around town. It depends alot on the driver, the condition of the car, and how hard you want to push your machine compared to how much he values his machine. I tend to baby mine most of the time, just to minimize down-time mainly.  |
