If you really want to build a true fq400 it will be costly... if you are after fq400 numbers i would imagine there are much cheaper ways to obtain them... at least for the newer generation it seems that the X fq400 seems to have done a lot of expensive power upgrades... but then I guess it wouldn't be an fq... good luck... and keep us posted on teh conversion with updates and pics

See sig

Walbro fuel pump, 880-1000cc injectors, Turbo Back Exhaust, boost controller, Cams, Air Intake, better BOV, and a tune. Talk with a local tuner to see what they would recommend, but the above will get you started.
