Default 345 enough? I think so.

UUhhhmm, roughly 345hp is enough to light them up at 30 to 40 mph and slam yourself into a rock wall, Rogers can testify on my behalf. The 8.8 solid live rear axle sucks! My new Backdraft actually has more hp than the cliff smasher I owned. But with the nice independant fully adjustable suspension it does not want to go sideways, it hooks hard and launches if you are already cruising. It can of course put on a nice smokey show for the drunks when required. I do see where my buddy Rogers is coming from. The Backdraft I have has a stage 3 Trick Flow cam and unless you are above 2200 rpms it sounds like it's running on 6 cylinders. This does not make a good evening cruiser or parade driver. Poor Homecoming Queen would get bucked right off the car. Sounds freakin' awsome but can get tiresome to drive at lower speeds. My $.02 and I'm 31. Guess I may be gettin' a Miata at 40. What do you think that little 4 banger will sound like with 4" sidepipes?
