This is a pretty silly question. For a start if your going over 200 bhp your going to need a different gearbox (chassis redesign) or a couple of thousand quid for a uprated type 9. You might even be using an alternative diff / subframe if your talking big power. So if your going to be fitting a new drive train, complete with all the modifications it requires, surely adding some additional strength won't be a problem for you.

Then after all this, you'll need to fit new brakes to stop the awesome power and a rollcage for when you leave the tarmac to go and modify a tree.
