as domino says, depends on spec. i wouldnt push much beyond 350 on the stock engine.
Standard pistons are a risk above 350, rods are a risk above 400, blocks ok up to 450.
Closed deck the block, decent rods and piston, bearings, headstuds and hedgasket and you'll be fine at 550.

You can push your 2.5 over 500 bhp but how long it will last thats the question ^^ I have been told max you can push your 2.5 forged engine to 500 bhp thats the limit......

Well how many miles you done so far? my 2.5 forged engine went after 15,000 miles which wasn't bad at all but I was only pushing it to 430 bhp no where near 500 bhp
