1.8 hp according to RCCA.
WAY more than double your stock engine's output. just use the $8 engine mounts that HPI makes for aftermarket engines..i'll try to find a link

depends on how much grip its got and what surface and how hard you push it, as more grip will put more strain added with the extra hp will wear components out faster
