How much HP would you be happy with?

**Me86Rob** · 05-11-2009, 10:29 PM

right now, id be happy with 100, maybe 110

**jdmda9** · 05-12-2009, 12:25 AM

ill be happy with 300 whp on a built b-series vtec swap...!

**Atlblkz06** · 05-12-2009, 06:05 PM

650RWHP and a mean sounding exhaust on the vette...

I want to build a 240SX to ~ 300-350hp quick spooling turbo setup for a track car. I'm thinkin - buy a shell, put in an RB25 and go from there... I doubt I'll start on this till next year... damn economy (now recovering...sorta).

**jdm_integra** · 05-16-2009, 08:41 PM

ill be happy with 200hp in my rex that way it can still be my daily driver and have some fun in it

**YoshiFD3S** · 05-17-2009, 11:59 AM

I'm at about 380-390 right now..

I'd like to be at 450 WITH traction....

Then I'll be happy.

^_^

**jap_racer1** · 05-20-2009, 12:49 PM

myy dd makes around 450 to the wheels while still getting 26-28 mpg but thats driving normal i have seen 20 mpg but the problem is your never satisfied always wanting more!!!
i am ok with what i got now but i still want more!!!!!!!!!

**redblackfan** · 05-25-2009, 05:45 PM

150 to 250 on a inline 4 honda except s2k

**Turbd4DE** · 05-26-2009, 07:55 PM

350ish..... Just enough to have a llil fun on the track and street. And u can kinda manage that kinda power.

**joshk5145** · 05-27-2009, 09:59 PM

ill have to agree with turb4DE. my bud kasey has a 88 gt with about 375hp. fun as hell on the streets and can still whoop a little at the track. pretty good numbers to me.... although he's abit over 500 with nitrous........it gets to be a little much for the streets then at least the way he drives it. still fun as hell though

**ItsBlack** · 05-30-2009, 06:01 PM

i'd be happy with about 220

**boricua4life** · 05-30-2009, 06:10 PM

I make about 170 right now i Iwould love to be at 350ish... i f i Iever get that high. After that i Iwould just buy a bigger turbo or small things here n there

**armyed** · 06-01-2009, 11:14 AM

The answer to this question is no car guy or girl is ever happy with the power they have...always want more! I know I do. I will be ok once I hit 800RWHP and im sure ill want to go more once I get there. It happens every time!

**arriaza7170** · 06-03-2009, 07:44 PM

300 I'm in a FA5 so i only need 103 hp more

. anymore than that in a FWD car is just retarded IMO

**m3dic8d** · 06-04-2009, 10:37 PM

I'm happy with the HP the Z has on the street. Any more would just be begging for me to wreck and / or get tickets...on the track I'd take my dad's Z06, with what...4-something HP

**NickW** · 06-05-2009, 12:41 AM

500+ is a must for the weekend car. 250-300 for the "other". And a motorcycle for the gas savings purpose.

**RedEj8** · 06-08-2009, 11:55 AM

In my Civic id be happy with 300-350whp. I think it'd just enough to beat most other vehicles and could still be somewhat of a sleeper.

As for my Mk3 Supra, i'd like 500+. Cause then I'd be able to live up to the Supra reputation and be able to beat most cars out there.

**E30 auddie** · 06-19-2009, 10:03 PM

300-350+ in an E30 would be good for me, for a little while anyways until i wanted more power. u can never have too much power

**91ma70** · 06-25-2009, 10:58 PM

the cars i like are usually on the lighter side so i wouldnt need that much power to be happy.200-299hp

**Dville nismo** · 06-27-2009, 03:58 PM

I think 300 to 400 is more than enough for me, but i suppose it depends on the car.

Very true. 330hp stock. I want 600+whp later this year.

**Turbodude06** · 07-09-2009, 04:03 PM

300-399 for daily.....

**Ocelot** · 07-18-2009, 10:19 AM

I had actually stated recently that I want to keep my 350Z close to how it is now and buy a 300ZX and hook it up with at least 600whp. that would make me very happy :p

**jville95** · 07-18-2009, 11:50 AM

I voted 200 - 299. That's just what i'd prefer on a on a daily...

**tandem** · 07-19-2009, 10:59 PM

I'd be happy with 300hp

**.93lude** · 07-20-2009, 02:23 AM

300-399 i dont want too much for daily driving, but i still want a good bit on tap when i want to have some fun

**Incontt** · 08-13-2009, 06:41 AM

935rwhp. that seems to be the number that its going to take to get my tank to a 9.39 this fall.

**bdydrpdmazda** · 08-13-2009, 06:45 AM

id be fine if the STi was just shy of 500 at the wheels. I think id be content for a few months with that

**Black R** · 08-18-2009, 08:06 PM

1k or bust

**jnv255** · 08-18-2009, 08:16 PM

850/ 600tq

**The Green Monster** · 08-18-2009, 08:30 PM

I'd be happy with about 750 - 800 for the weekends, with my sc still stock looking

x2! any car higher than 350 or so cudnt be a DD or atleast not for me

**Greddypacked** · 08-31-2009, 12:34 PM

400-500 Well cuz i can handle this much horsepower w/ everyday driving and it would be nice to have when wanted lol.

For a daily FWD id stick with 400 and NO MORE.

Im not saying to not do it, because either way its fun shit !

**claybird** · 09-28-2009, 03:14 AM

I want something so when the rich snoby kid pulls up at the red line i can fo sho whoop his ass in front of his girl!

**SlenderEG6** · 09-28-2009, 09:34 AM

**DoriDori** · 09-28-2009, 02:07 PM

I'd be happy more than fine with 600-700 in a R32 GTR. Most people say thats the usable limit for a street GTR.

**jhadleyh** · 09-28-2009, 02:07 PM
