To be fair the ~70hp in the standard Spridget is on the verge of overwhelming the chassis - the halfshafts are notoriously easy to break. Stiffer springs and shocks would've helped mine no end on twisty roads, too, although the Spridget already handles well. Personally I would stick with the A-Series and upgrade to electronic ignition - but I like tinkering with greasy old tech, so it may not be for you. Supercharging them isn't uncommon.
