550 rwhp is pretty much the brink for where street tires will actually grip effectively, and even that is a stretch. so in order to put down any more power you need slicks or drag radials... but with slicks/drag radials, people grenade their axles. so basically a 1000hp 370z can barely run a better time than a 500whp z?
so that leaves you with the choice of going slow because of tire spin, going slow because your car is stock, or blowing up your axles.... sounds awesome.
