there are some here who spent a pretty penny on headwork that really didnt do much, im sure alot is in the tuning, but no one is even close to 200hp all-motor yet.

Thats why I put the YET in there, I know many will get there soon, with the coming of an aftermarket ECU, Cams are finally out, High compression etc.. I personally want to go that route also, anyone can turbo a car and make it fast but to massage another 60-100 hp out of the 420A without FI is talent.
I think its very possible with howell top end kit with drag cams, 12:1 compression and a 8500 rpm limit should be no problems to reach 200 with good tuning.
