This past Saturday evening Delorean Midatlantic had Fred Dellis of Legend Industries speak and give a Q + A on the Delorean. One of the questions was about horsepower. Fred said that they were able to dial in all the horsepower that they wanted but because of durability and warranty issues they were transmission limited. THEY KEPT BREAKING INPUT SHAFTS. This was on the 5-speeds, in his opinion the automatic was even worse although he doesn't remember using any. Fred also said they had planned to get away from the Renault transmission eventually anyway. Very hard to deal with Renault. The short answer is if you are doing any kind of large horsepower increase either with the PRV or an engine swap you have to figure a way to get rid of the Renault transmission.
