thats a very subjective question. All depends on driver skill. I personally have never toasted a tranny, and I drive the hell outta my cars. They are strong if you replace the diff, good to about a 26-28inch slick and 600+hp.

either a prodrive spool or a quaife LSD. they are very strong trannies, never replaced on myself due to power, mostly due to driver error(killed synchros, broken shift forks, etc...) Even past 600hp with 28" slicks they do well until you start launching very hard on them and they start destroying ring gears.
