I think it's actually possible to do it since Honda is so good at squeezing HP out of NA engine already. 125HP/L is a walk in the park for them. We'll just have to wait and see though. To me, it just seem more logical for Honda to do 125HP/L NA than to go F/I. Since the GT-R has been stated 480+HP, I think Honda's 450HP is pretty comparable. Much better than the last estimate of 300HP.
A V6 is much more difficult to achieve HP/L with through N/A because it just has so much more rotating mass. 450 sounds whacky.
