i don't think you've got to worry about blowing anything up
the HO whipple kit puts out 550 hp, and puts down just under 500 at the wheels on stock everything.
a 125 shot w/ the appropriate safety measures, ie: window and WOT switches, is going to be safe. it should never be spraying close to redline b/c it'll shut off, and it'll shut off between shifts when i lift off the gas to change gears.
the motor can handle it... the design, while it has undergone improvements, has been around for what... 15 years now? its been tested and it'll hold down 400hp no problem. i understand the shock to the system instead of a gradual increase... but, the 550 ho whipple kit produces, i believe 400whp off the line
