u can run it safely at around 200bhp in my opinion. little mods needed to get it up to 200bhp.

however the whole type r incident i wudn't b suprised that even with 200bhp u wud stil lose. u have to remember that they r near enough new cars with huge revs compared to the little s2 with only a 1600 engine.

i love my s2 to bits, and i wil probably piss people off here but the car isnt really that quick in todays standards.

thats just my opinion.
