F30 M3 / F32 M3 too hot to turbo... really?

Hey guys.
I was wondering if anyone else saw this

http://www.topspeed.com/cars/porsche-gt2/ke1715.html

I am a little worried about the blow back for even referring to the US version of Top Gear... but that said, I hate the show but like Tanner.

Firstly I know very little about forced induction, but it scares me that you can drop a ton of cash-ola on a supercar and not have it perform on demand….
“Yeah… the car is wicked fast… except today… it’s a touch too hot… I am down 50-60 HP”

My question to the people that are probably a lot smarter about this stuff than me is that, is the next generation Ms with turbo rather than naturally aspirated motors going to have the same issues?


For those that are going to say that 640BHP minus 50 … what is the big deal?
I have 414 under my hood now. I don’t used them all, BUT paid for them and like knowing that I got what I paid for and can get them any time I’d like
