Default power question

2 seater mini that weighs around 900lbs. with me and someone else adds another 550+, is anything short of a turbo busa gonna have enough power to make building a 2 seater worth it?

Stock busa, power commander and pipe put you over 200 ponies and 100ft lbs of torque. The stock busa with stock pipe and no power commander will get you around and do it quicker than the v8's, no need to turbo unless you really wanna lay an arse whoopin on the 600hp+ rails which is a walk in the park thanks to the 310 hp you can get with a moderate turbo..... :mrgreen:

so how would a gsxr 1000 or comparible 1000 work. i know a busa is more powerful but also more expensive. atleast i think i really dont know how much one costs.
