I think I learned my lesson with more than adequate power on the street back when I had my '07 GT500, which was pullied and tuned. Useless on street rubber unless in a straight line, but it was sure fun scaring the shit out of passengers drifting it through intersections. I'll admit that it eventually got old after a while, and I never thought the car handled that well since it was such a nose-heavy pig.
My '15 is sporting a GT350 intake, injectors, and CAI with a flex tune burning corn so it should be in the neighborhood of 500 crank, and it's kind of a sweet spot. It'll still kill you if you do something stupid, and it's on the ragged edge of traction in a straight line at WOT on 305 rears; pedal it through first, stand on it through second, and get a healthy scratch out of third and you're in trouble right now.
Still, I'm watching the market closely for "my" S550 GT500 (10X the total machine versus the S197 500s), but it's not been a priority with too many other irons in the fire. I drive the lowly GT so seldom as it is, just ticked 13K miles...
