Default 944 turbo maximum horsepower?

What is the maximum hp rating obtainable from the stock 2.5 liter and the k26/6. I don't want to do any major internal mods or get a bigger block. I'm just wondering with all the mods out there for the 951 if 400 horsepower is too much for daily driving for this car. Does anyone know what the sweet spot is for horsepower on these cars is. I'm thinking ill be significantly happier with around 350 hp or so. What do you guys think. Shoot me your exact setups if at all possible.

turbo? 900-1000 hp

but, a v8 is good for 1100 hp and sits nicely in the bay.

For those of you tards and newbies there was a guy who recorded 300rwhp and 330rwtq @22psi with a stock k26-6 Big John aka John Stevens. That's probably the max attainable with the k26-6, it's documented here about 8-9 years ago
