Just how much abuse can a standard set of pistons take?

What sort of power levels can be achieved using them before they give up??

My pistons and bores are shafted especially no 3 where lots of water went from the head.

Been offered a standard engine - considering bolting all my goodies - head, rockers, s/c box etc all on this engine and seeing what the standard metty turbo pistons/rods/crank can take.....

Im thinking of a comfortable 130bhp at least? (un intercooled)
