Those are the correct numbers. Those numbers are at the flywheel though, not the tires. Do you have a 5 speed or auto? I can do nice burn outs with my 5 speed. Also, maybe you need a tune up and all that fun stuff. SVT's have 200-205 horses.

SVT's
98's have 195
99-2000's have 200 at the flywheel

Or you can do the 3 litre motor swap.........
