Either way it seems possible with a MILD build. Full boltons with some cams and valvetrain might be able to put him at or near the 400 mark.
I don't know why some of you think he'd need a forged block or something if they made ~90 whp above stock on Intake, header, exhaust, and tune...

I think it goes without saying, the sky is practically the limit when you add giggle juice, so why even bother mentioning it?
Cams isn't going to happen in this car - only on the exhaust side. The only way to get the valves to open up more would be either a LOT of money into the intake VVEL system, or simply tuning the valves to be open more and more often. Its going to be VERY complicated either way, and a tuners nightmare at first Im sure.
And problem is, he wont be making more than 90WHP to hit 400 WHP than stock...on a dynojet dyno (generally recognized as the most inaccurate...), they're putting down what, about 280ish to the wheels stock? He'll need 120WHP more. That translates to approx 140+ CRANK horsepower more. You think full boltons will do that? Because when an LSX based motor - something with a LOT more displacement and room to grow - can pick up 140 crank horsepower from boltons, well, god damn. It all slows down very fast after the "big" boltons, IE headers-back exhaust.
