To see 400WHP on a NA is not going to happen, Like said early 350 WHP IMO, Guys have not done cams, but with the VVEL what is there to gain if anything, Guys went LTH's and go nothing for the $$, I was at 300 WHP with IE, Headers and HFC's and a retune would have maybe? got me to 340WHP but would have cost like 2k? Add 6k to that for built 4.5 maybe another 20-25WHP? For 9k I went from 300 WHP to 412WHP ( Yes same dyno), I know the guy above me said this but if you wanted to be NA and at 400 WHP, The VQ was the wrong choice. Maybe the new 5.0 or a M3 would have been better, :/

FI is the only way to go, Read everything you can on this many guys have tried and not got there,
