Default Re: turbo vs nasp engine sizes

Interesting fact = the S2000 head is pretty much perfect flow wise. I've not heard of anyone who has managed to get any better flow from it! Way to go Honda.

The key arguement here with NASP and Turbo is volumetric efficiency. The turbo uses the engine capacity more as the air is being pushed in. The more efficient the engine the less fuel it will use for the same power as a less efficient one.

I can see the day coming where all cars have Forced induction as standard due to stringent emissions. (This will be a tuners dream!)
