What are the limits of the AMV8 Vantage?
Discussion
On my supercharged 2007 AMV8 with 6.8 psi boost and stock motor and exhaust I've got 519HP and 378TQ at the wheels.

Are you sure that's rear wheel power? Or is it estimated flywheel power?
I would assume the latter as that's a good 140bhp more than standard.
If it were the former, you'd be looking at a lot more flywheel bhp (probably 600bhp ish).
No idea how far it could go. Only one way to tell for sure (but that's expensive!)
In addition to potential longevity issues of the drive train, I wonder if the brakes and other chassis components are up to that level of power...
Will be genuinely interested to hear how you get on with the car though....may stop me going back Italian next year!
