Default Estimates of how much HP my tranny will hold?

I have a 95 Civic SiR Y21 B16A tranny. It has a Kaaz LSD, and im using stock axles. How much HP before I break the tranny. Can I use the BFG street type slicks without hurting any thing. The motor is a GSR with bolt ons also.

You will probably break the stock axles before you break the tranny.

mmm, there is lots of people putting down lots of torque to the tranny and lauching with slicks with no problems...
very far fetched question...is like asking; how long will my car last?

weak link is the stock differential

edit: oops ment stock diff.

Is the Kaaz Diff considered weak?
