I would LOVE to get a 400HP 6MT with Akebonos and cloth interior. I really hope they don't make leather mandatory for 400HP trims.

According to Q50/60 VR folks, the difference between the 300HP and 400HP models is largely erased with tuning, the tunes gain A LOT on 300HP cars and less on 400HP cars, bringing tuned 300HP cars close to the tuned RS cars. The 400HP VR is not terribly different from the 300HP model, I believe turbine speed sensors and an extra cooler. Careful tuning and adding more cooling are what most people do to achieve big gains from the 300HP VR.

There's other questions I have too, like what kind of differential in the different trims?
yea the HP difference is just tuning. the only difference in parts i believe is the turbo speed sensor on the 400hp version and thats really it.
