[DML] Standard Transmission

To the veterans and guys that like to tinker with power, I am curious 
as to how much horsepower and torque you are able to squeeze with the 
standard Delorean 5-speed without breaking it or the axels.

I have seen a website with one of the cars on the list that has either 
a Chevy v6 or v8 that is rated at a little over 300 HP.  I also think 
its turbocharged, but he is still using the standard trans without any 
problems.  130 to 300 is a big jump for a transmission without having 
to modify anything.  

If it can safely take 300HP then could it be modified to take any 
more?  I'm trying to get all my ducks in a row because I want to 
change my car over to the 5-speed anyway.
