I dont think you'll get 200rwkw from your NA turboed. unless you use turbo pistons to lower static compression. Otherwise i think it will go BANG! For that sort of power look at: turbo exhaust manifold turbo intercooler 3" turbo back exhaust turbo injectors turbo ecu knock sensor Turbo pistons

Oh he could easily get 200rwkw out of a bottom end. Theres a few people using N/A bottom ends on the track for the higher compressiona nd pulling very good times. Higher compression is a good thing in my eyes as long as you can stop things from going bang. 10.1 Compression isnt that high for a turbo car these days.
