i think with enough money and the right guy working under the hood u could easily get it to 200 but like everyone has been saying aerodynamicly the car wouldnt be stable at 200, you would have to sheetmetal the bottom of the car, drop it so its kissing the ground and make sure u get a kit for the car that has been proven maybe the c-west kit, maybe a splitter and canards and a different spoiler??? dont know much but if u try this u have alot of work ahead of you

Everything is possible.
JUN were the first to take a Suby over the 200 MPH mark in Austrailia. There is video of it to boot. Start searching. The thing sounds like a jet engine.
Also just as a side note.
The highest HP NA is 290 AWHP for a Suby. Also online so search.
Gearing is the biggest factory and not HP.
