HAHN Turbo Question

This should probably be posted in the Hahn Turbo thread but oh well. I read somewhere that our pistons could only handle 285ish hp. The Hahn turbo cobalt dynoed like 240 whp, so what does that put the engine hp at? probably 280+ right? I was just wondering if we'd need to upgrade our pistons if this was the case.

I am curious where you got that piston number from, because it sounds like and L61 engine. The LE5 engine has forged internals, and I know it can handle more then that. Hahn has made more than 400 WHP on that engine with a stock piston.
