Your 22 should swallow 200hp without batting an eyelid.
If you are wanting more than that though, I would consider stitching the seams and adding bracing on the front struts. The rear is relatively stiff but through the cockpit, it isn't great. You won't fix this area easily without a cage.
I would be looking at a diff improvement while your at it.
You would be very foolish to upgrade acceleration and handling without doing the brakes. THere is heaps on these forums about them so go searching.

chassis needs work.
I had my rails lengthened to join the front and rear.
before that, with a good hit the boot would sometimes open and the doors became hard to close....chassis twisting.
I have heard of sill twisting, but haven't seen it yet.

Yep, stitch weld everything, move the gearbox crossmember mount to suit, and weld in roll cage if you want to go mass horsepower, ..., but then again, 200HP isn't mass horsepower!!!

just remember the ta22 weighs about as much as a biscuit, so 4-spot calipers are overkill - some decent 2-spots will stop it just fine
