As a daily driver of a 2000 Viggen I'd advise to first invest in the VRK (or similar beef-up of that area) and truly good tires (S-03s, Eagle F1s, or comparable). Trust me, my bone stock Viggen is a wonderful rush to drive but I would not add power without first making provisions to handle it. In stock form I find the legendary "tramming dance" on hard acceleration to be often surprising but manageable (barely). And I'm used to the fact that on wide open throttle the thing will spin all the way to the shift to 3rd at 45-50mph on its current marginal tires. But more grunt would not net me much acceleration gain without the some added rigidity and much better rubber on the ground.
