To sum up the topic-even if the NA engine is limited to 275 HP, I think we have all agreed unless the final demands are above 350 HP, this situation would benefit staying with NA.

I'll keep looking for sources
You also have to consider that that 275 hp motor is rated at the crank, not the wheels. With tons of R&D, even AEBS could barely extract that kind of power and they had a much higher compression ratio that they were running.

If you can find me something credible that can prove outrageous horsepower claims, I will believe you. Otherwise, it still confirms my original statement.
