That's news to me, and frankly I find that quite concerning - well-designed cars are generally quite a bit underweight and require ballast to achieve the set weight, after all. (there's a reason Ginetta got so much ridicule when it was claimed it came in OVERweight)

Power increase is going happen but again it'll further increase costs, so many will be apprehensive giving it the green light, but they need to get them to fill that big void left by the new p2.
From what I've heard the engine aren't being run anywhere close to their capability, so cost increase for a small power upgrade should be minimal.
