I would go right to 500 rwhp and call it a day! I think that would be the best amount of HP that you could consider streetable.:burnout:

That sounds good, but more important to me would be drivability. My car only has 505 at the crank, and let's be honest, more often than not I don't use any where near that amount. But of course there are times when you wish you had a bit more, or in Sam's case as I'm sure he'll pipe in shortly...a LOT more!
But again, drivability is more important to me as I've had higher HP cars that were miserable to drive with their big cams etc...

My Z06 has about about 375 HP at the rear wheels. That is more than sufficient for regular street driving. If I was into the track or drags I would want much more. But for daily driving on the street what I have is fine.

~mid 600 RWHP starts to become unmanageable on the street unless you have suspension/tire mods to go with it... :beerbang:

I am really happy with the power that the car came with for the most part. It's plenty for everything that I need or want to do.

1000 at the crank and 834 to the ground would make me happy. Oh wait, no wonder I'm so happy all the time!:cheers:

In reality, you've asked a trick question. My car has sick power, but it was done in a smart fasion, so my car is really no less "driveable" on the street than when it was stock (unless I decide I want it that way). HOW you make the power is just as important (if not more) than HOW MUCH :yoda:

Hell as much as I could afford, which at this point is pretty much stock!
