Noone out there with money to play with has even attempted to try and build the car a VQ motor to make 400 whp (NA), "MOST" everyone here in the states wants power fast so they go with F.I. Anyone have any information on the tuners in Japan or do they not like releasing that kind of information out?
HP is torque over time.

If the engine could maintain peak torque up to, say, 10K or 12K RPM, you might very well see 400 whp, with the right valvetrain, headers, etc etc.. I just threw out 15K off the top of my head, but higher powered F1 engines rev verrrrrry high to make that power.

Of course, the oil pump on our motors seems to kerplode at a mere 8K RPM, so...
