Agree with Banny.
The box will tolerate a torque of about 370 lbft if driven 'well'.
Powershift it and expect the worst, a blown box and a bill for a 6 speeder!

The TMIC will never hold 350+ for long, it will get too hot too soon and tail off.
Best bite the bullet and do what most do in the end, fit the FMIC which is a leap forward.

Your going to need to upgrade your turbo also as it runs a TD04.
Are you aiming for 350bhp or just going with what your car can do now?

The Sti V5 box is a 4:444 diff ratio and i think yours is a 4:111
4:444 rear diffs can be tricky to find.
