Yep, definitely. But it's my belief that, on the fast national courses, you won't be able to give up TOO much HP to the big guys... so you'll probably need close to 300 whp. It's my impression that much power out of a DET is kinda peaky and hard to drive as opposed to the supercharged S52's flat torque curve from 3000ish to 7000. Greg, what kind of power are you running now?

The suspension options are amazingly wide and diverse: Surely there is something for everybody.

That's part of my point. I only know of one person who has ever made an S14 competitive on any national level (in this case, ARRC). The suspension choices may be diverse but the developer will have to pick and choose which are the fastest (read: $$$$$$). I could call any number of E36 guys and have an incredibly well-setup car tomorrow. The S14 can compete... it'll just take a lot of time and not a small amount of coin.
