Default How much hp can a stock LQ4 crank hold?

I am planning to build a turbo lq4. I am planning to buy forged rods and pistons and am wondering if the stock crank will hold up to about 800 HP for a mostly street car and occasional track time.

1000+ hp has been made on a stock crank many times, it will do just fine for you goals. Line hone the block and stud the mains.
