No. it's the same as bolt-on's and a tune that anybody can do for 2 or 3 grand -It's just that they charge a lot for the warranty on the higher output version that the distributor for the UK is able to get. I think there is a cat-back too..but just the few items to get 60 or 70 hp more.

a racing-spec intake duct, a low restrction catalyst & exhaust system, and tuned by UK HKS. some aero parts( carbonfiber lip & vortex gen) & accessory dress up(few carbonfiber pieces on engine bay) oh and fq-360 emblem

they highly doubt that there will be a fq-400 evo x because they claim that stock internals are not strong enough... i hope they are wrong

FQ = wasting money.
You can do it with AMS or others for a lot less.

I doubt its a question of engine durability. With the 9, they went from 400 to the 360 to improve the driveability. The 360 made more tq 2200 rpms sooner and was a much better successor to the 400.
