you could easily go 4age
imo i'd get a 4agze for that extra torque
if/when you get bored of the charger rip it off and go the turbo route...easiest & cheapest way you'll get what you want
power doesnt mean shit...if you watch the d1 guys and all those crazy jap drivers you'll note that they enter corners at min speeds of 80kmph...you dont need a hp warrior to help maintain that drift. Imo the only advantage of big hp is drifting at slower speeds due to obvious traction issues
45aken check out these 2 sites...it gives you an idea of basic power output for the 4a series and the other link will help you in extracting that little bit more

you are right shcao...i too have difficulty in explaining tech things sometimes but basically when you're in the drift and you're thinking about where you want to exit you need to turn the steering wheel the way you want it (ie:visualise where you want the car to be), dump the clutch slightly and power on...this will snap the end back in line with how you've steered.
its obviously not that easy & im no guru but in laymans terms thats about the gist of it. correct me if im wrong
