Good point--it would be good to have greater power with good ground clearance.
I agree that 250hp from 2.8L isn't stunning, but it is in line with the old audi 2.7L, and the 2.8L should have much reduced lag. To answer your question, too much more power would just overwhelm the front wheels, so there's no reason to work the engine harder and invite more lag.
I agree that the current 2.0L is a little weak.
