So what's the current consensus for max safe power on stock internals for our engines?...

As long as the tuning is good and the motor isn't overrevved, I think we'll see 550-600whp
Before we see a failure. Remember that some cars have blown engines, but all due to detonation at high RPM on the dyno (at least, the ones I heard about) from bad tuning/tweaking, and all at lower power levels than we are currently seeing people consistently put out these days.
To me, that (plus the fact that we already have forged internals and a relatively low redline) is an indication that the motors are robust, but people have abused them to cause them to fail.

We're also working with what can fit in our engine bays. If you could slap some big *** turbos on..
our engine, I bet it could make some serious power!
The 2-JZ-GTE motor that came in the Mark IV Supra can go from 320 Crank HP to 750 crank HP buy just upgrading the the turbos. It cost them $15k from HKS, but it's also 750 hp. You add some HKS 264 cams and you've got another 100 hp. There are more than a couple of those running 1000 whp. But they can fit all that **** under the hood, we can't!
EDIT**Woops, meant to post this under the video link.

yeah, but the power curve would be as flat as a pre-pubescent teen's chest until 6k RPM where
there'd be a big **** star boner of horsepower.
1.35L of displacement driving each turbo ain't a lot.

You are very correct, but it's still crazy *** horepower!!! ***Edit, changed the link to the site

This is from to4r.com, a site that only allows 700hp + Supras. Check it out. There are some pretty serious contenders on there!!<ul><li><a href="http://to4r.com/to4r.php">http://to4r.com/to4r.php</a</li></ul>
