I'm no big-power guy but what about a stock STi motor with forged pistons, GT30R, external wastegate and run it on race gas with a conservative tune (350+ whp).

Since Scott sees seriously high G's, you'd want to drop the dough for a dry sump and throw an oil cooler on since it is a race car after all.

What am I missing?
