I do have a 4.36 final drive to help with the lack of power, and I don't plan on going lexan anytime soon but maybe in the distant future that would be a possibility.The car is currently a rolling shell and I plan on getting it running in stock trim so I can learn the characteristics of the car being that this is my first S chassis and first RWD car.

With an N/A car, it may not be a bad idea to possibly even look into a 4.6 and then raise the rev's to the 8300-8500 range. That would be kinda fun.
Good friend of mine had a NX2000 that used to be a full on N/A car with a upgraded final drive and bolt ons(hotshot header, intake, JWT S5 cams, etc etc) and it was a blast to rocket it to north of 8000 rpm) He's since went VVL (which is even more fun as it isn't totally gutless) but man that thing loved the upper RPM
