Afraid the man is right. 400bhp is not going to be cheap. My spec is a rebuilt engine with forgies, decent tubby (probably a Fensport Garett hybrid), Motec ECU, uprated fuelling, HKS cams and a good FMIC. Not forgetting of course the twin plate clutch and all the other varius ancilleries that come with a car in that state of tune.
Go for it my friend, but go with your eyes wide open.
400bhp on stock internals will not last long at all.

Okay, so I misread your 'fwhp' quote, but you still ain't going to achieve 400 with just that. You'll need cams, properly gas flowed head, forged pistons, ARP head studs, stronger head gasket and , as stated above, a FMIC. WAI is only really good for around 350bhp at the most.
Okay, you can stick on a great big turbo and wind the boost up, but it won't be really driveable. Full boost at 4500rpm or above coming on like a switch isn't much use >

I'm planning forged pistons, cams, flowed head, Apexi ECU, water injection, etc and realistically expect to see around 350 - 370bhp at the very most.

JDM ST205Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying.
