Autocross Theory: CRX + 2.3T engine = Victory?

So,
I've autocrossed for a number of years and have been fairly successful in my 9-3; but, sadly our cars have their limits. However, I have a theory!
Recently I saw an ad for a CRX "tub" for only $200. It even had good tires! just no engine or transmission. I started dreaming, if I could only put a Saab 9000 Aero engine in it. Then I realized why not? The engines should be about the same weight give or take and I could make it all work with a couple of custom mounts and driveshafts.
Is this insanity or am I on to somthing?
Just think. A tiny 1600 lb CRW with race tires and a 350 hp Saab turbo engine. Gets me going just thinking about it.
Let me know what you all think...
