This sums up my thoughts as well. There is undoubtedly a preferred combintation here. To much HP and no weight is just as bad as to much weight and no power. To me 350-400 whp turbo 2.0/2.4 in a 2300-2600 lb car is almost ideal for a street based S chassis car. That's C6 Z06 power to weight level. That's not to say that 450-500 whp in the same weight will be bad, but you need to put some serious rubber under it, and really change the driving style with a car.

When torque isn't readily available (persay in an N/A 2.0 engine) I'd vote for as light as you could get that platform.
