Progress within your means first, because once you start putting down some power, you will NEED to upgrade the entire drivetrain, suspension, brakes, what tires you use, safety measures (roll cage) ie.
Really man, 500hp in a car as small as ours is some serious bidnass!After driving around at @ 140hp, a jump to 200 or 250hp is going to be like a whole new world. Start there and as you gain more experience at driving, building, tuning and tweaking your car, you will be ready to put together a set up that will safely and reliably make 500hp+ and drive it everyday.
