My rough estimate is over 500HP for a normal street car, good luck getting there. 60-130 isn't something special, it's just a number some ricers came up with.

60-130 is great for comparing turbo cars with a tune. They still have no traction down low, and so they can't actually put down good quarter times, and the drivers don't track them.
