Watching you guys argue is comedy.

-Carlos, your new engine is a beast and I think you'll have a very successful season
-Ron, I have complete confidence in your engine building skills and I believe 100% you could build a 1000hp engine if you wanted to and had enough money.
-Adam, you're still the McGyver of cars and your engine is also a beast.

Back to the original argument - I think anything over 360rwhp is realistically plenty for a street car. Having said that, with forced induction it's easy to get 600+ and still be very streetable. I'm shooting for 550+ wheel with the Cobra
