Not Ranked
Im not impressed with CAPA.
A 5.7ltr engine, with forced induction, is barely scratching the surface at 1000 rwhp. My observation of CAPA is that they are not innovators and what they do well, is to charge for the services. Or more accurately, vendoring on other companies actual products.
Keep in mind 1.5litre F1 engines put out 1300hp+ two decades ago.
A 13B turbo rotary with water injection and an actual displacement of 2.6l has been demonstrated to put out 1000hp+ on 98 ron fuel.
The 2.6 and 3.0ltr Japanese sixes have put out over 1000hp with forced induction.
