From a non-expert's view it seems like it would be less costly to make a turbo that delivers both power and reilability (oh and profit) beyond m97 levels than to stick with the NA regime. Look at what the 991 GT3 engine is costing Porsche now. That ordeal has probably contributed greatly to changing a few executive minds about NA power going forward. With VW in charge, short of going to flat8? they probably see shifting to Turbos as the less risky road.
