I have had T5s last behind 500 FWHP in stock form with no issues. But stock clutch discs and radials go a long way, but then again, some people think my car is a freak with stock trans and rear....was...

T5's can be built to handle some abuse. I have customers making well over 400 hp to the rear wheels with modified stock T5's. You can also install an Astro A5 gear kit into a T5 which is pretty stout as well. The key to making one live is using a soft hitting clutch and do not use them with drag radials.
C4's are not a bad way to go either if its a track car. They pretty much such on the street though. Another good option is a face plated Tremec. I have seen some used ones floating around lately. People are hurting for cash so there are some deals to be had.
Don at Lethal Performance here in San Antonio has a rebuilt Trans King C4 for sale. He just had it freshend up locally and called me yesterday wanting to find out how much to ask for it. PM me if you want his number.
