I hear ya man. I'd still rather have the GT500 in retrospect, lol. An $1100 CAI/tune package later for +100hp, and it would have a lot more power than mine does. This will probably be the last car I modify to this extent. I think I've just had a few now, and I'm over it. I want something fast, than can also be easily gotten rid of when I want a new toy. I'm basically stuck with mine given its so modified. When I do sell it, I'll have to just sell it at blue book and take a 100% loss on the adds. Live and learn...

If I had a manual, then I think I'd be happy with 400whp.. but with an auto, it seems like I can't get enough.

(-:

My goal would have to be 550whp.

I am already getting bored with my 420 and making plans to get it closer to 450 over the winter with a new pulley, GT500 pumps and a tune

this is what I was wondering if I did get to 400 na would i be content

Make sure what ever your choice, it leaves room for improvement... You could be almost 100% sure you'll crave more power... Theres always somthing faster then you...

To tell you the truth, I was a little dissatisfied way back when I was in the 400 HP range!

I agree with most. I am addicted to the power. Started with the basic 400rwhp+ range. Haven't been dynoed with all the new parts, as they aren't on yet. I know I will be at 500rwhp. Some time down the road, I will forge, then I will look for 600-650rwhp. Once I get there, I'll be bored with the car as a whole, park it back in a dusty corner in the garage, and move on. Oh, the tangled webs we weave.

or instead of parking it you could let me drive it around lol

After being at 465 HP for the past 2 yrs I am and have been looking for more HP and very soon. 600+HP to be exact

Forged and stroked motor, mild cams, 16+ psi boost, Steeda whipple belt drive, and new twin disk clutch and one piece DS.......that should do it!

(hopefully by next spring!)
