I would leave out the oil, but thats up to you. Try using Honey instead of Sugar, and add some other spices such as Thyme, Cumin, Basil, Oregano, etc to make it more complex. Also, the more Fresh Peppers you use, the better. Chilepowder just doesn't work well, except to add flavor enhancement or bring the heat level up. Anyway, simmer this mixture untill everything cooks, then let it cool a bit, then Puree it in the blender. Wahlah! you've got Hot sauce.
