Default HP question

How much HP can the coyote safely handle without doing any work to the engine?

Quite a bit. I know a guy that was running his 2012 with a procharger. Car ran 10.8@130! He was at the track twice a week for the last few years and the car never broke once. So the engine will handle 600-800WHP no problem. Your axles will probably be the first thing to break.

^^^^+1 most supercharger kits advertise 650 - 750 hp at the rear wheels, and that is a bolt on kit, the coyote is a stout platform

On the 11-14 cars i saw most issues begin in the mid 600's at the tire. New motors seem to be a little stronger.
