pdk questions

I have been looking at 997.2 turbos 2010-2011. Many of these cars are advertised as '600ish' horsepower due to intake, tune, exhaust and sometimes turbo upgrades.

First of all how much horsepower can these early pdks take? I would not want to buy a modded car unless I can still put the pedal down hard from time to time without worrying about the tranny.

Second, opinions seem all over the place about whether the PDK will need a re-tune when horsepower is increased. What is it about the extra power that makes a PDK factory tune become troublesome and how often is this the case? Is it a case of the shift points not aligning with the power curve anymore?
