405bhp, 0-60 in 3.5 seconds...

Yup,
FQ-400, or;
Fu(k'n Quick 400 horsepower.
It think I feel the horsepower wars from the early 90's comming back.

Only thing I don't like about the FQ-400 is the route they took getting there. The upgraded turbo is a beast top end but has pretty bad lag. I have over 400 brake HP on pump gas on the stock turbo and instant spool up as well.

you mean of the 60s and early 70s.
hp started comign back in the late 80s and didns't start getting real big until the mid to late 90s. the viper had 'only' 400hp when it came out and only 350hp in 89 when it was a concept. now its over 500

hmm lets see $96g for an evo or for a viper??????? waaaayyy too much money for that car. i like my 400+brake hp for a lot less

[Das142002]

Yeah I think the "HP wars" are starting up again as well. Subaru is making some sick WRX STI's, Mitsubishi is doing the EVO's, Nissan/Infinity has the Skyline (soon), Toyota/Lexus will be bringing the Supra back (albit a super car $$$$$$$)... I personally cant wait.

[ldstang50]

i like my 400+hp car now and with all upgrades i'm still at less the $34,000

This evo 8 has 520 hp at the wheels and sound like a dragon (not that ive ever heard a drogon )

[Evo1345]

Wonder what the end cost on that 520hp is?

[superflyjmysnk]

If they sold it in the US it would be around $46k, they sell at a higher premium in the UK so the pricing wouldn't be the conversion between pds and $, it would be around the same numerical figure 46000 pds-46000$.

[Evo1345]

WOW~! would that be fun to driver though...................hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... how to make a quick $46k...lol
