I hate the idea of just adding HP to give myself a big number, as I think I'd probably go with a Hellcat if I was only concerned about big HP numbers. I want to make sure that I have enough tire/brakes for the boost in numbers, otherwise I'm just creating a tire shredding device. I hope that the 325s from a 1LE are at least a part of the discussion.
My car makes 700whp. In the summer the OEM SC3s get pretty good grip, In the winter they're useless with that much power. I honestly can't see anyone making use of more than 700whp except at the track with sticky drag radials. That's why I stopped where I did when modding mine. Chasing HP numbers can be addictive until you can't use it, then regret often sets in eventually unless you just like to spin the tires.
