hp on block

I Have a 95 Eclipse GST, I recently had a 16 g super turbo by hahn racecraft, and i was wondering if anyone knows how much hp the stock block on a mits. GST can take?

RE: hp on block

the block itself cn handle 900+. However the block is not the issue. It is only as strong as the weakest part. In this case you are most likely to lose a rod at 425+

on a gst you have to worry about crankwalk once you start pushin 300hp.. but it might be able to handle 400hp on stock internals (sry my info may be way off i'm not thinking right right now... )

RE: hp on block

There is a video of a dude pushing well over 450 with his 7bolt stock internal talon... needless to say it blew up on the dyno. I would not exceed 400. You should be fine there.
