Building boost off the line - what supporting mods?

FG MkII XR6 Turbo (ZF)

 

I plan to remove the 1st gear torque limiter to be able to stall above 2000rpm and build boost off the line. I also plan to tune to no greater than 300rwkw. Obviously the limiter was put in place for a reason, so I wonder what driveline components are likely to fail from building boost off the line? What should I consider upgrading? How does the stock ZF handle this at that power level?

I don't intend to drag the car.


As for why? I tried this in 2nd gear and it put the biggest smile on my face. That's reason enough 😄
 

Thanks

300rwkw will be fine.

+400rwkw on E85, which allows more torque down low, can be risky on stock ZF at the track with drag radials.
I'm 350rwkw on E85 and 300rwkw on 98 and both light up the rears easy if I try and stall it on the street.
