Analogy makes no sense IMO

how is a n/a motor harder to develop than a direct injected fi car?

The software programming alone, not to mention development of a quality coolin system is much more difficult in an fi car.

Both are good, but fi motors are more efficient and powerful.

Fi cars can also have excellent throttle response and pull hard to redline while also maintaining excellent low to midrange tq. See a 997 turbo for example.

I love both types of motors, but fi cars have a lot to offer IMO and I am excited to see one in the new m3. Just wish it was a tt or sc v8 instead!
