FQ-360 X review
"If you start targeting 380-390 hp, you need to introduce new con rods and pistons, which adds dramatically to the cost."
Are you serious? If you added con rods and pistons you could still do it for less than the HUGE amount of money they are changing for such small increases in performance.
Let's be honest, the FQ is about a cash cow for
, and nothing more. How much is a motor from the factory - less than 16,000 dollars I would presume.
One more point i want to add...
1. Remapping of the ECU = $0.00
2. Vortex generators = $500.00
3. Intake $7,500.00
4. Cat-back exhaust $7,000.00
You must be joking.....

Just for the record the pictures of the blue 360 are not a standard 360. 95% of the carbon goodies are extras to show what they will be making and those wheels are also an option coming in at around $6000! but no doubt to you guys they will cost about a dollar 99
I wonder if they are talking 360hp max at flywheel or wheels. AMS already has 388hp out of it. Its cool but all X owners here in the states can do that if not more for less than $5000.
