The problem is that a car is only as strong as it's weakest link. Once you start beefing up the engine the trans will start taking a beating, then the axles and cv joints will want to break, etc. What these guys are trying to tell you is that this car really isn't a good candidate for these kinds of ets. Is it possible, sure, but the investment to get there and keep it running will be more than a different car and setup.
