For 2.7 you need even bigger bore and stroke but i dont know turbocharging would be possible.
The most important is gas flow of the head, bigger doesnt mean better. Rallycross engines mostly are build for torque and have a 45mm restrictor so are limited at around 580bhp and around 900Nm.
Thanks. Yes, I understand 2.7 would only really work with Normally Aspirated.

I am asking a lot about this engine as I want to buy one but I only need max 600bhp and I wonder if this engine would not work as it is built for max power.
