I don't want to get too far off the beaten (read Volvo) path but there was an article in European car about a tuner in Vancouver who'd taken both a Golf and a Beetle and thrown the 4Matic system and a twin turbo'd VR6 engine under their hoods. They were making in excess of 400 HP and while this may seem excessive/impressive in itself, what I found more intriguing was the fact that the journalist who wrote the article stated that they were both extremely driveable even after all of these mods added up to 400+ on the dyno.
