As for the rear end and tranny, as long as you dont use this as primarily a race set up and are running good slicks on a prepared track all the time, yes it will hold up. Street purposes the stock drive train is good for well over 500 whp, track it is maxed at 450 due to wear and tear and hard launches. Thats what my tuner told me. He said wheel spin saves you a lot of wear and tear on your drive train.
hope this helps

My opinion that has been second by many experts (including CK) is that dont focus on numbers. With a stock engine and a good tuner make as much power as you can with 10psi safely. If that is 440rwhp stop there, if it is 480rwhp stop there, etc.
I plan to tell Justin at VMP to make a really safe 93 tune with my 10psi pulley. The number I make after that I wont worry about.
If you boost your engine you have to be willing to pay to play. The higher the boost the more likely you will have a problem.
That is why I am starting at 8psi and slowly raising the boost as I get nearer and nearer to wanting to forge.

Gotta be thinking traction like some other have said. Wheel hop can be an issue. Get some UCA and LCA to help out with that. Might also think about reenforcing the clutch. Definitely won't hurt. Sounds like if I were to still do the Whipple, I got the best deal on price + install. Just those damn gas prices are KILLING ME.

+1 what everyone else said. That sounds WAY high.
Plus, what you listed was very subjective "Massive" "Oversized".. Those aren't finite descriptors, and are easily misleading..
