Recently in the Speed channel featured "Two Guys Garage", they mod the 2012 GT with Roush charger, Boss intake, and many suspension mods. They incresed the hp to 540. I would say that's safe guideline to use.

Flash, the roush charger would not use the boss intake as it is a positive displacement blower and has a manifold below the blower that houses the a-w intercooler.

There are modders, even professional ones, who have put the stock fake forged conrods and stock pistons through over 600 HP at the wheels. But of course, on the stock conrods and pistons, you can be sure the engine longevity is been greatly decimated.

Personally, I say 500 BHP crank is as far as I would push my own engine with stock internals.
If I go for 500 HP at the wheels, I would prefer to have one of these:

Mahle true forged pistons, true forged H-beam conrods, etc.

I only go by what I saw in the show.

It would also depend on how you drive it.
