hey guys im planning on building my 2tg to reasonable power. is 150hp at the wheels too far a goal to reach for me being only 19 and on only 400 a week? i want it to be nice and streetable with a reasonable amount of torque but still keeping the revyness and retaining most top end power. is this to much to achieve? just trying to set my goals. any feedback is greatly appreciated
cheers

thats ~200 flywheel hp, probably about the upper limit for an atmo 3TG hybrid, unless you want to spend big bucks (lightned & balanced internals, mega compression etc.) which i suspect wouldnt be worth it considering the aternatives out there. EFI will obviously make it behave better, but to get those numbers you'll be using some fair sized cams and hence your bottom end torque and driveability will most likely suffer.
that said though, it'd be one tough 2TG!

Even 160hp at the flywheel will be difficult to live with on the street and have stuff-all torque... unless you go turbo in which case 200hp and plenty of torque is easy to acheive!
