Yep, it's not just engine mods at that kind of power, and the AWD drivetrain hasn't even been tested for such insane horsepower levels yet. Everything that extra power runs through would need to be strengthened. The stock suspension would rock the car back like crazy under that kind of horsepower. It'd be like an old fashioned muscle car that would be near impossible to control. 700 horsepower on 225 wheels is unthinkable. I'd be eating through tires left and right, if I'm not already sideways in a wall.
I made this thread with my mental estimate of the single turbo upgrade costing about 5x as FBO. Not sure, though.
