Ams, as a tuner how do u determine if an engine such as the m157 can handle all that power... And same question for the transmission and driveline ?

It's all apart of our R&D process. We actually order new individual components like the M157 pistons and rods. We then use F.E.A. software to analyze important components to determine the weak areas. This gives us an idea of how much stress we can put them through without any failures.
Once we have a idea of what they can handle, we apply that to our shop vehicle for real world testing.
