how hard/fast are you shifting? tires? type of FI?
i'm running almost 540h/550t on mine with a PD blower, and my stock MM6 trans is fine. that said: i ain't dumping the clutch, i'm on street tires, my speed shifts are limited, i rev-match on all downshifts.

They'll hold some good power given you don't beat the snot out of them. I know these cars run the MN12 which is rumored to be tougher than a t56, and my old t56 on my camaro was holding 574rwhp/612rwtq on spray no problem when I got rid of it.

FWIW, I have my original trans in my car, and you can see the power #s in my sig below. Been pushing this power for 8 years, and I run DRs as my full-time tires. I do plenty of roll-ons in the car, but do not drag race it at the track anymore, and I don't powershift. So the trans will live, but I'm nice to it.
