Power to weight is a strong factor when speaking in performance terms. I don't recall Rocket saying anything about Turbo beating NA, but I will! In the real world two motors of the same, one turbo & one NA is the question you bring. Lets start here for a NA to be competitive with a turbo car there will be sacrifices that are not exceptable in a street car. To get the NA around the power levels of a lighly modded Turbo, will involve porting, lots of fuel, on point tuning, weight savings. Put the same money & work used towards the NA into the turbo & not a chance. Not that you can't make a NA rotary quick, but in the quest the car gets extremely loud & reliablity is in question. What I think he meant was that by porting the motor there will be additional cost as in intake, exhaust, fuel & tune for things to be effective. Now back to my above statement Turbo 13b trumps NA 13b look at the recorded times they speak the truth.
