Default How Much Power/Torque Through a Standard 6MT Gearbox take

As per title, wondering if a few people could tell me how much power they are running with the standard 6 speed Box, actual figures please not guess's.

Car is currently pushing 420/400, but am making changes to take it to 470/470.

The current syncro's are worn so am upgrading to carbon reinforced ones, just trying to gauge how much power it will take before stripping teeth.

many thanks
Jay

Is that a guess?

Customer may well opt for GT35 later on so could be looking at over 550/500.

Just nice to know the limits of things.
