Every one says 400-450 for the trans is max but the ceramic wheeled turbos are around 14 psi and that is pushing it. The 1jz engine is capable of a lot of hp but it needs to be tuned with the upgrades you make. A stock soarer tt is putting around 250 hp down due to power loss through the trans.

If you are going through the effort you might as well install the R154 vs the W58. You will then have upside whp potential without pushing deeply into the W58 reliability tradeoff. 400 whp is normally fine, 440+ is not. Hardly anyone (no one?) manages much above that for any time.
