Are ya'll having issues putting it down to the pavement?

Reason I am asking is my nephew has an 07 Mustang, I know, with 850 rwhp. Pro-charged, Nitrous, Meth Injected, Forged, it is built, built rear and tranny BUt can't hook too much power . So wondering at what point is too much tooo much 650 700, 750??? I know when his boost kicks in he gets sideways, just wondering if it is the same for you guys.
I'm going forged since I'm wanting to up my boost and shoot for 700RWHP. I don't want to take any chances by throwing too much boost at the stock block/internals.

If you're on street tires then you're going to have a problem getting them to hook. I have Toyo Proxes and if I floor it from a dig then I'll generally spin my tires through 1st and 2nd, and yes it will get sideways on you if you aren't careful. It took me a week or so to get used to the added power since this is my first car with F/I. Once I wear these tires out I'm going to run some Nittos.
