+1 a stock T5 will NOT hold up to a 408w, maybe a Astro T5/G-force T5.....but if it was me, I would go with a TKO 600 behind that 408w

edit - before someone recommends a t56 and its variants....T56 = heavy (125+ dry). its huge and major modifications will be necessary to clear the trans tunnel.

TKO 600 ftw, or else you'll be replacing your trans every oil change

Actually, the Astro T5 would be a good choice for that application however I would not trust it over 500 rwhp. At that point the case becomes suspect.
