Nobody is stopping you from taking this engine and making a billion HP. Big numbers and loud dyno videos project excitement and translate into sales, which is what you're ultimately after.
Those of us that genuinely
want to retain this engine as N/A, isn't because we don't want more power per se, it's because we like the response, purity, and simplicity of natural aspiration. That doesn't make boosted setups wrong for others, it's simply reinforcing our desire to have an specific machine interaction as man-machine oneness.
If you want to garner the respect of the N/A crowd, competently develop an ECU flash with control of both fuel injector sets, spark, and cam phases. Work on intake and header tuning, and camshafts. If you want to get into cylinder head tweaking, by all means, go for it.
