Hmmm
I want the mystical "reliable power" lol
Few guys were saying there that the mahle's crumble
How can i obtain roughly 300-400bhp and keep it as a daily?

You can't use mahles on iron sleeves like dartons.
Mahle golds are designed to run on only frm sleeved cars like the s2000 and the prelude.
Mahles handle the power but the debate is weather they last longer than 30k. I can't say they won't or will.

For maximum reliability I would sleeve the block. Mahle golds are what I intended on using but there's not enough people who have had them in the motor for 30,000 miles plus too unproven for my liking
