Turbo Charge it?

but these little hobby motors are idling at 8K RPM. The intake ports are not open long enough to stuff in extra O2... thats why these run on nitro-methane.

I've been seeing this thread for a long time and kept my mouth shut but now I gotta say it. I don't care what your mathmatical numbers are for combustion efficiency,this part of your theory is bogus. If the ports are open long enough while running naturally aspirated,it's plenty long enough for being supercharged/turbocharged.
The reason these small engines run nitro is the greater amount of power expelled at ignition.
