400 whp would be great for a DD. It will depend on the TQ too. And also people will have to decide if said amount of money is worth 100 extra whp and whatever the TQ will be. Id love to have that much power for my DD but of course $$$$ will make the call.

Yea 400 is good if I want 500+ I know what to do...When the new model comes out we'll want to get that one anyway...so it really doesn't matter in the end...

Yeah that is true, and I really would not think it be worth more than 6k for me. As I would just get a bike instead at that point, but I know that is not something for every body.

you can probably get 350ish at the wheels from bolt ons, I figure if you go FI especially on the new VQ motor you have to be seeing close to 500

I would hardly call VVEL lame. Once the the ability to control VVEL becomes common knowledge I imagine most tuners would wish all engines had them.

350 to the wheels on bolt ons IMO is kinda high. Thats what 70 over stock? And the avg SC will be just above 400, for 500 from a SC you will have to run high boost and that could lessen the life of the engine a good amount. For 500 or more better go TT.
