Probably why you only see vids of twin turbo cars WOT in 3rd or forth gear.

Ummmm , yeah they can handle the power. My last Z put down 481hp and 427tq on a stock engine and a stock AT7. I didn't have a tranny cooler either. Hell, I just finished putting the car back to stock yesterday and it runs just as well as the day I bought it. That kit was on my car for over 17,000 miles. I might of had problems with the kit but for the most part I was putting way more than stock hp down. So yes these car CAN handle more on stock parts.
