wont make a difference about the power thats is going through the crank but the stock engine can hold 400 and starts to break apart at 450.

if you plan on building up your 2g the easiest way is to just swap out the 6 bolt in the begining so you don't risk having the crank walk and screw all the beautiful work you have just put into your car!

agreed. there is no set limit to a power threshold that causes crankwalk. it just happens. i am sure that it has happened on stock engines.

yea its really not the power, its how its driven. But of course adding power does add more of a chance.
