350 wheel hp
 
Will it ever be possible to make over 350 wheel horse power N/A , what do you think restricts the engine itself from making over that much?

There are a few threads on this already. One of which is only a few threads down.

Where did you get 350 whp as the max NA? There are a few that CLAIM a bit more and only the crazy expensive builds that truly do.

All a turbo or supercharger does is cram more air into the motor. So to make more power in an NA application is by allowing more air into it by increasing your redline and/or displacement. Those 2 methods are after you have done everything you can with the standard mods like full exhaust and intake. Throw some cams in too.

Physics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_efficiency

Basically heat and friction.
