How Much Power Can It Take?

Just curious how much the 9 bolt rear end in the 1989 GTA cars can take as far as abuse. Just looking at how much horsepower and torque everyone here has pushed them with.

See your answer here. Except, multiply the HP and torque #s I gave this guy, by EXACTLY 1.7732841527.
