Arrow McLaren F1 - Gotta love it
Gordon Murray insisted that the engine for this car be normally-aspirated to increase reliability and driver control. Turbochargers and superchargers increase power but they increase complexity and can decrease reliability as well as the ability of the driver to maintain maximum control of the engine. Murray initially approached Honda for an NA powerplant with 550BHP (400 kW), derived from the Formula 1 powerplant in the then-dominating McLaren/Honda cars.
