me too, but it is so hard to get decent numbers and still be street legal. of course it also depends on where you go for smog also...

I've always considered streetable is

a)still passes emissions (if your area has them)
b)will not violate any obscure law the cops love to enforce
c)doesn't require anything special like race fuel to run

A streetable car is basically something you wouldn't mind driving to the track, getting a few runs and driving home.

I don't recall my area requiring anything more than the necessities that pass a safety and a emissions test to keep the tags on. So any HP is fair game as long as you hold true to those requirements.
