Well. there are a large number of people here with over 200 HP that have run the snot out of their car drag racing and track time. They seem to have held up very well.
NearlyNN just finished the One Lap of America , and won his class BTW, and had zero failures for the duration.
I seems the bottom end on these little engines is pretty darn good. There are some questions about how well the pistons themselves will hold up to high HP over the long haul. We'll see.
