FQ-400 turbo

I've read that it's a custom garrett turbo. Anyone know the specs or price or if it is even a worthy option to look into?

Its a GT 25. Will cost you a very pretty penny with the # exchange rate especially since its an american turbo and 400 Crank HP can be had for ~3K with the stock turbo and injectors.

I thought the turbo on FQ400 are the HKS turbos. This is because of the line I've read in on october 2004 edition of "Car" magazine they said "HKS Supplies the bulk of the new Engine Componentry" they then proceded on talking about HKS steel conrod, Strengthen head bolts, and the Unique garret turbo . ..

As it's a garret turbo, and HKS turbos are Garret GT series turbos.. so I would assumed that the turbo on the FQ 400 are HKS's GT 28 or GT 30 series turbo.. that would make 400 to 580 HS..

I don't mean to steal your thunder but you can get 430 crank hp with ~1.5K with the stock turbo and injectors.

turboback
fuel pump
intake
ecu reflash
MBC
Cams


That gives you about 340-350whp on a dynojet = 420-430whp
This is alittle over $1500

What's nice about FQ-400 is with those parts it seems to be pretty safe to run around all day long.
I wonder if FQ-320 has an uprated radiator and/or FMIC. On the list above I don't see anything to help the cooling. Interesting.

Anyone know the parts list of the FQ-320? I'm also planning to pump up my car to those levels.
