10 Bolt Upgrades

After just looking up a new 12 bolt for my S10 I'm thinking maybe just doing upgrades like stronger axles and the Ultimate cover. The F Body guys are saying the stock S10 10 bolts can handle 350-400HP without sticky tires and using the Ultimate cover with studs, would adding aftermarket axles improve it to 550-600HP without sticky tires?

Should I just have a 8.5 10 bolt narrowed since the 4x4 version is so wide [S10 4X4]. I'm not going drag racing but the thought of having a stock looking S10 with a turbo/4.8L LSx intrigues me.
