Re: Are Naturally Aspirated cars faster than Turboed cars?
the thing about forced induction is that you can get more power out of an engine of the same dimentions without stressing it as much. if you had a 2L engine putting out 350hp NA, it would probably be reving high enough for it not to be a comfortable daily driver and really stressed whereas if it was turboed it would be streetable and might not be stressed as much. also, you can get more power out of that 2L, the max on the turbo car might be 100hp, 200hp, or more over that of the na car. unless certain limitations in competitions prevent you from using forced induction or there are penalties (such as added weight) for using it, there's really no point in building a na engine.
