internals should be good to 1000 but the head bolts start to stretch around 700 ive heard so most people swap out theirs for arp studs.

700 rwhp is the safe limit, this pistons are what give out... but internet forums are not the best place to find out facts, people will say whatever

I'm going to have to agree with the 700hp range as well.

i would keep it around the 600rwhp mark.I have seen a lot around that but 700 or 800 is a little high.I have heard that they start to pop around the 800hp level

mm ff did an article on a twin screwed twin turbo'd termie on stock internals (only upgrades being to the fuel system, injectors, plugs) and made like 1200rwhp/tq? I know it was over 1k rwhp/rwtq but I can't remember the exact amount.
