uhm, how much money do you have? ;)

These questions are pretty silly. There's no HP limit to a drivetrain. There might be a torque limit, and it might depend on how hard you are on the drivetrain (hard launches vs cruising).

there are several guys pushing a few hundred HP with a turbo. Some of them are even drag racing regularily, but that's by far the hardest on the car.

did you go to the picnic? Sach Carlson's turbo ix is making 300-some odd HP. And he's been racing that thing for years now..
