Is this anyone knowing in here?

Or on how much HP do you run your MTX and how long?

Thank you! :)

I don't think anyone has found an actual power limit so far. There are 2 things that you must do if you want it to last, upgrade the differential (quiafe or torsen) andupgrade/fix the shift tower. Those are problem areas even with stock power levels.

To answer your question, many people have 350+whp with nothing special done to the trans.
 
Typically the axles break before the trans. And of course that pesky shift tower bolt...but it's fairly easy to prevent that from breaking. The DSS Level 3.9 axles are an option there too, with those I'm not really sure what the next weak point is. Possibly the intermediate shaft I would think
