Apologies if this is a repost, done a search but things seem a little spurious.

Really wanted to know at what BHP point the stock components fail or go past their limits?

e.g.
Clutch
Injectors
Turbo
Brakes
Suspension
Gearbox
Engine

Also when does torque steer become an issue?

Your pretty safe on standrard everythin till 320-330bhp.
Gearbox is fine all the way up to 400+
Suspension will be fine for straight lines, but its pretty poor as standard.
Decent pads and your brakes are fine.
Turbo will see you up to a MAX of 280bhp only with a perfect and full setup tho!
Twin SMIC would need doing for BT aplications.
