I think the Apexi drift car makes 400hp with stock motor running a PFC, also Peter farrell claims 360hp on stage 3 with his piggy back.
You have to think bout the miles on the motor, what psi, restrictive exhaust, lot of factors there
I think you be alright as long as you tune right.
Good luck

"Too much hp is almost enough " <----- i agree

I have So been there.
Racing on the freeway 4th gear, shift light came on and BANG. It was so loud and I took both lanes to slow down and all over the place Oil all over the windshield smoke smoke and more smoke. Yes It freaked me out but I was so happy that I just missed a parked car in the emergency lane that I didn’t even seen… Oh Yeah…. $40 tow and get me home thank you… Weeeeeeeee!

Damn I wish someone would have told me that before I did it as a daily driver on pump gas long term with no problems.
Working on a 500rwhp daily driver right now.

For a car to be able to do that, unless you were on ice with oily slicks that were frozen by the ice, youd need a top fuel drag engine and a transmission so big and strong youd have to straddle it to sit in the car... LOL
