1. Normally aspirated (What's normal? In other parts of the world, turbos are normal and have been for a long time) 2. Non aspirated. (So the engine uses no air? Okay.) |

It means just engine, no power adder. It means sucking the air nature provides. Superchargers and NOS are the alternatives. Welcome to the world of performance, your question speaks volumes.  |
