I would think a bigger port and possibly a bigger chamber would be able to cram more of that power making mixture in there for each combustion event?
Instead of a boom you could get a BOOM?
(about like nitro)

If you're on a dyno you'd probably make more power...maybe a lot more. That doesn't mean the car will get to the finish line quicker. A lot of other variables need to be accounted for. How fast the engine will spool, what RPM will the bigger head work at, etc. You also have to tune the rest of the car to take advantage of the "better" heads.... and then you have the reliability factor to consider. Anytime you start tilting and twisting things you have the potential for more issues... If you want to win a race you have to win the rounds.
I have no idea if Chief uses nitrous. Sometimes turbo combination use nitrous to make up for turbo lag.
