Default Stock LS2 engine.

I am new guy to this kind of thing. Sorry if it's dump questions.

What is a safe HP and Boost, that I give it. The car is a DD and I want to keep it as reliable as I can and still give it a few more horses. I will not be tracking it but, would like to road race a couple times a year.
What is Safer the Procharger or Maggie 112, and can I run either of them on the LS2? Or should I go with the 6.0 L Intercooled M122 supercharged Corvette C6 LSs from Lingenfelter.

Thanks

We have many high hp C6's out there now, we have found that they can take more power than the LS1/6 by far. We have a handfull of them at/near/or over 700rwhp on completely stock engines and our SC kit.
Granted I consider that on the edge, but they have been raced and DD driven for over a year now on some of them, so if you stayed below 600rwhp I would consider that very safe assuming the tune is on.

Not to hijack, but to follow up on TMRoc's question. What is the weak link on the C6's, auto trans, clutch on 6 speed, rear-end, half shafts? I have a C5 with procharger making 475RWHP, may need to go auto in the C6, what can I expect?

At the moment, A6's are capped around 600rwhp, hopefully that will change in time. Other than that/or up to that, they are good.
