The 5 speed auto trans in the 2002+ 9-5's is actually very strong. I would not worry about 300HP. You do need to consider torque however, and it is probably wise not to reach for much higher than 330 ft/lbs without considering the strain it will be puting on the trans. Flush the trans every 30k miles also. 60k is too long to wait.
