FWD -> RWD -> AWD

Just for thoughts.
With all this informations and heed warnings for 3sgte swaps, boosting motors, etc that gives circa 200-250 WHP.....
Shouldn't them FWD (excluding alltracs and GT-four of course) drivetrain be "moded" as well? Isnt RWD or AWD the way to go (at least) for true compact racing cars -> drift/touge/rally/drag/freeway/light-to-light...
The reason I say this is bc as I was planning to make more power meself, I had the chance to test drive an sti scoob just last week. Then it dawned on me that alltracs NEED them HP and torque to turn FOUR wheels. Hell of a difference in handling and control.
SO...what I wanted to know is, how feasible is making our FWD into AWD? someone here is about to drop a motor in the rear...making it an RR. thats awesome! (daring enuff to have a hard time too). How crazy is an AWD celica w/ rear engine? I keep thinking about this in my head.
