I don't doubt the 200hp rating of my '03 v6, as it runs out of breath pretty quickly above 4500. HP is a function of torque times engine speed(torque in foot-pounds, times engine revolutions per minute, divided by the constant 5252). With how quick the torque falls off above 4500 rpm, I don't doubt the "just" 200hp rating. However, the 229 ft-lbs of torque at 2500 rpms (which is available with almost no lag due to the small single-bank turbo design) gives it great "oomph".
Oomph is a technical term I would need advanced differential equations solved with LaPlace transforms to define, but you'd know it if you felt it;-)
