I wasn't referring to DI, I was referring to Lotus pulling an "extra" ~10 hp out of the DI (or non-DI for that matter) engine.

The only relatively easy way of doing it is playing with the cam/ignition timing, and there's a point in which that becomes less and less feasible while maintaining emissions compliance.
