I remember reading somewhere that the max torque it could handle was around 360lb/ft.
I am not 100% sure though, maybe someone more knowledgeable could chime in?

Try a search using google. Link. The first mention of the Getrag unit on the first hit lists the torque. The answer is 442 ft lb.

Officially it's 600Nm but how much it will 'actually' cope with is anyone's guess.

With some Dct cars being supercharged I think we may be getting closer to a real-world answer. If I recall some were pushing 400+ ft lbs of torque...
