Why can't we get larger throttle bodies that are bigger than just 2mm bigger like The one Jun makes? You'll probably argue cost N/A vs F/I but what if one chooses to stay N/A? There are many platforms out there that make more power F/I but still many choose to stay N/A even with the huge cost difference. Why can't we get support like that?

550whp is not considered super car status when new V8's are coming out with 500-600 hp stock like the Camaro, Corvette, Shelby Mustang, and new Trans Am.
Of course, I agree - for non force induction, I feel like there is still lots of room on the table. I mean, lets assume minus driveline loss, the car is making 650 on the stock motor - that's quite impressive. And what car also has such a nice chassis, drives well, good ultimate grip, in our MSRP price range? Mustangs also drive well, but that is a debate for another thread.
