It depends how you drive and how well you keep it maintained. You could probably do 550whp if you don't power shift.

I asked this before too and everyone said it will all depend on how you treat it. Someone also stated that the T56 is rated at like 450 ft lbs.

I think it also depends on what rear end gear you are using.
