I think the engines are quite capable but cracking the ECU and doing proper tunes has become increasingly difficult and seems to be getting worse to get everything synched up. Maybe they'll start building in less headroom but I don't think that's a smart long term strategy even if it'll save a bit up front especially with turbo engines.
