Hmm, hope they put in a Honda VTEC engine, like sun racing:

200BHP in an Elise looks like a lot more fun than 120. I thought that 160 was good, but just to make sure that a 355 can not keep up, 200 would be better.

I doubt they'll put anything less than 190 bhp in it so don't worry. I wouldn't underestimate the lowly 120 bhp Elise though, it packs much more punch than you think.
