How about a 378hp 2.8l V8 Busa engine?

This is basically 2 I4 Busa engines that share a crank and bottom end.

There comes a point where trick parts and/or more rpm becomes too unreliable, too costly and maintenance intensive. For an OEM type deal adding cubic inches, oops I mean more CCs is the way to go for a long OEM type life on the street while keeping maintenance requirements on par with todays bikes and what most owners would find acceptable.
