You can increase NA power but it’s orders of magnitude more expensive than with a forced induction motor. Cams, intake, exhaust, valve size, porting the head, ITB’s vs single throttle, increase the rev ceiling and yes- boost the displacement. We’ve done all of these on the M96 motor.
Fitting a bigger turbo and injectors would have taken a couple of hours and been maybe a couple of % of the NA cost.
