Default Stock Tranny

In terms of HP, at what point do you start to push the limits of the Tremec 3650 transmission? Ive heard this tranny could handle up to 400HP, so if you are making more HP than that, do you consider upgrading to a Tremec T56? Does this require a new computer or just a re-tuning?
