UK evo8 fq300

Does anyone have any details on the fq series for the evo 8? I've been told it is likely to be a 300-320 bhp car, with a few extra differences. Any info??

The FQ package??? I thought it was simply an ECU upgrade over the stock ECU??

Does anyone know exactly what it is???

So it is pretty much an ECU upgrade

How much hp do they believe the muffler adds??? Might as well just buy a full cat-back/turbo back exhaust.

An ECU is an engine control unit. Remapping fuel delievery programs and such to boost powerband tendencies, et al.....

Woah.... that sounds awesome.... I heard such a rumor but I'm not sure if it's true or not, from what I hear it was to be provided from the dealer with Ralliart parts on it pushing at around 300 hp+, if it truly comes out, for sure I'll be the first to buy it....

I thought the EVO7 FQ300 was a turboback, ecu reflash and carbon fiber trim and its being offered with the EVO 8 in the UK. They are also inline to get the EVO RS hitting 330bhp later this year
