Safe limit AUQ

[limpabit]

Hi everyone.

Current spec.

Standard AUQ 180 engine.
T28 turbo from a Nissan Pulsar
Custom Exhaust to be made.
Looking at Geneisis 550cc injectors. Standard at the minute.
QPENG ECU.
Walbro 225l/h in take fuel pump.

I was looking at 300 BHP when mapped. Is this too conservative? I don't want a blown engine. Can it be pushed a bit more?

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong section.

300bhp will be fine. Most people say the limit for the standard engine is 350bhp but slightly lower might be wiser.

The limit is not only the HP. The biggest problem are the torque. If you map the car without to much torque the engine can keep it, but with a lot of torque the rods fails.
