I would like to raise the question of reliability and streetability. A Turbo Dseries car that makes 300whp will be fast yes, but it will not be a streetable car, thus taking the whole daily driver aspect away from it.
It will guzzle mad gas, have insane turbo lag, and be impossible to drive in the wintertime (if you live where i do - yeah NE!).

Now consider this. If i decided to put juice on my car (wet kit of coures - thanks OC), i would be able to make much more power than a Dseries that is boosting on stock internals, and my car would still be a great daily driver which is capable of running 13's.

I would take functionality and reliability over cheap power any day - even if it does cost a lil more.
