350 at the wheels is very doable with a mild cam and some bolt ons.
Although the H/C combo is fun too
Then again, there's always power adders.
It all depends on your personal preference, pocketbook and tolerance.
I happen to like the lopey idle of a cammed car, some do not.
Some prefer the power on demand and relative low cost of an N20 setup.
Others still prefer the whine of a forced-induction car.
My engine builder used to say "How fast do you want to spend?"
Do you want bragging rights of a 350rwhp car or did you have another goal in mind?
IE: To run 12s or to be faster than your friend's car.

I was a little over 300 RWHP a while back, through the stock manifolds, gutted cat, and stock exhaust with a cutout.
My mods at the time were basic bolt-ons in my sig, minus the 1.6RR's, Pacesetter LT's, ORY, dumped bullet muffler
The ET calculators put me closer to 320-330 now...

300RWHP from bolt-ons without LTs or rockers?Was that on a dyno or estimated based on ETs?

Well it was a while back so not sure where they all are, but here is one of my old Dyno sheets...

*** EDIT ***
As you can see that pull wasn't even to peak because the dyno operator didn't believe me to spin it up to 160 MPH in 3rd gear, and had it set to shutdown at 150, that was back when I had 2.73's...

I was dynoed at 320rwhp with only 30.5 degrees timing. That is cam only with long tubes and true duals. I was using the cc306. With more timing I should be around 340rwhp. So it is doable.
PM me if you want to know more.

The cam is a comp cam 306 you can find the price in summit or jegs. I got this one used with very low miles. If you look in the sell section you should be able to find a good deal on one. Alot of people want to upgrade.
I can take pictures of the exhaust but if you drive your car as much as I do you can make good power with the pacesetter long tubes and y pipe. You won't lose the ground clearance eighter.
