Can Auto stock trans handle 500whp safely?

I might be spoiled with the power already on straightaways/highway onramps, of course on the canyon, it's got more than enough power. It just feels as if from 3rd to 4th the power is still there and then 4th to 5th, not so much. Hell, the FX35 that my old man drives has better feel from 4th to 5th.

Which I should note, it seems as if the VVEL from the VQ37 holds back. It's as if the VQ35HR feels like it has more torque than the VQ37. Just my opinion though.
