The general information I have gathered is that it will handle about 280whp reliably on the stock engine with proper tune and fuel, but it requires a few supporting mods such as clutch and oil catch can, and possible cooling. Beyond that you are looking at replacing your connecting rods, which are the weakest part of your engine. You should get forged pistons and bearings done at the same time.

The shop near me called AWD Tuning does those 3 things to support 500hp. Beyond that you are looking at sleeves and possible head work.
