Out of boost it’s really not much less reliable or different. If you are tracking the car it’s obviously a lot different, but for a DD only car, you do a few pulls here and there for 5-10seconds hitting boost, but mostly just cruising. Its fun having the power when you want and as long as setup properly and don’t get greedy on boost, its not really that much more unreliable.

As far as staying NA goes.
WMI
Grimmspeed CAI
Billet power blocks
Ace header 250 header
Catless frontpipe
Custom tune
Lightweight flywheel
Under-driven water/alt pulleys
Fluidampr crank pulley

Other weight reduction like shorai battery, remove trunk junk, rear seat delete, carbon fiber driveshaft, willwood 4pot bbk, lightweight wheels, lightweight seats.

Drag reduction Aero like front lip, front wheel deflectors, full under-panels, rear diffuser, rear spats, side skirt, rear spoiler, trd fender fins, trd side stabilizer, trd trunk stabilizer, trd aero turbulator,
More aggressive gearing with a 4.56FD swap

That will pretty much max out your power/straight line performance if staying NA. Its a small fortune for little return, ask me how i know...But It does all add up and make a difference, and doesn’t hurt reliability.
