the real sweet spot as mentioned is about 240-260 whp. the car would do that nearly all day.
yeah, 300whp sc 4.3gear would be a blast and enough for most,

Another thing people forget when mentioning power goals, is power to weight, 200lbs weight reduction can go a long way, and also have benefits in other areas like braking and handling. As well as helping get to a level of acceleration performance that an unreliable amount of whp would need.

Cost sky rockets for same WHP if its for spirited driving, vs tracking.
and cost sky rockets from 300whp or below vs 350whp and up.

So many factors and variables to make generalized statements unless we know his specific intentions and specific budget.
