I love the way the car looks this now you just dont imagine it having 600+hp but i can see why you are going down this route getting that kind of power down in a dolly

Yep me too looks perfect as is with all that power, and standard (ish) appearance. Do you have any vids of it?

Part of the appeal of your car is that it still looks like a Dolly..

I think it needs to stay the same
its got the old skool look and rocket power.....for those how don't know its a dolly with large wheels and arches,almost comical untill you give it some
and see there faces..
The new look would look cool on the track more than the road.

If you fit that kit, then people will expect it to have big power to go with the looks. If you're only gonna track it, then go for it.
If you want to use it on the road and keep on surprising people, keep it as it is

Of course it is: I was trying to point out that if it looked like a monster you wouldn't be able to sneak up on people and surprise them at how quick it was. Big looks mean people will auctomatically think it has big power to match (which this has in this case). Understated looks mean people will think you're easy meat, and you will have the advantage.
