well do the math. its about 10hp per pound and at 10lbs thats around 100 more hp give or take(correct me if im wrong) so this should be at an estimated 260hp so can this motor handle 260hp with stock internals?

do WHAT math? you didn't say anything about WHAT turbo you would be running....10psi on a t25 is TOTALY different than 10psi on a SC61.

i am simply informing you that PSI isn't the limit, its WHP. But to answer your question, 260whp with stock internals is fine with good engine manangement.
