Most rwhp for daily before PITA sets in?

[DriveWayBuilt]

408w/ c4 for a daily. No problems here.

I personally like around 400 for a daily. I can stick some not so expensive tires on there and have them last a while. Not to mention traction issues with wet weather and a rear wheel drive car.

Not saying it can't be done but that is the PITA factor for me. Not to mention the gas used with an application with that.

I'd say that isn't enough. My cobra made that and was fun on the street, but it needed more. I'd say 500 minimum for a fun street car.

I've got 635rwhp on my 2010 SS LS3 with 9.5lbs boost, no issues.

What's the most rwhp in your opinion before it gets to be too much of a pita to deal with?

I don't think there really is such a thing any more. Even the reviews of the Camaro ZL1 come back saying that it is a very easy car to drive.

IMO the only real question is how much of that HP will you actually use. If you're going to take it to the track then go for as much as you can afford and you enjoy. But if it's just a daily driver, why bother with so much power. The 2013 Mustang GT has way more than enough power to get you into trouble but drives just great on a daily basis. Even the V6 is a decent car now.

But I guess that is just a personal preference type of thing. Just get what you can enjoy..

If i can't boil the tires at 60 it needs mo powa

What platform are you working with? A new ZR1 with a pulley/headers/tune can make over 700rwhp and you'd never know it wasn't stock as far as daily driving is concerned.

Put a blower on it. That will make it fun for a while.

Anything past 2hp/cubic inch

In my opinion the 2 major factors are...

1. Quality of work and planning prior to implementation.
2. How you drive it daily.

#1 being the most important though. Can have the best plan for a reliable monster, but if it is piss poor work > average work it is going to suck. Everything needs to be perfect and attention to detail paid.

I've found that a lot of it has to do with cam size. It cam make or break the car for street. The clutch is equally important.

For a c6z I'd say 550 rw NA, 650 on spray or boost. The motor's suck anyway, but if you change out the exhaust valves with a solid steel/inconel/titanium, it at least won't drop valves and destroy itself.

[Hobie]

C6z with full exhaust, cold air, cam, and tune will get you ~550 rwhp.

Adding heads and fast intake will add some more power, but not much, and will cost a lot, but still be totally streetable.

Beyond that it gets even more expensive. It can make big power and be streetable, but it's gonna cost ya.

6lbs/1rwhp is the start of exciting type fun I believe. Just build the combo that does that reliably.

Cams usually have the biggest effect on drivability.
