There are no accurate figures available. IM would know how many normally aspirated cars they've imported, and they'd also know how many UK Turbos they've brought in. However, nobody knows how many cars have been brought in privately, and as most of those would be turbocharged, it'd be impossible to even guess how the turbo/NA split would work out percentage wise.

IIRC IM sell something like five turbocharged Imprezas for every normally aspirated car, so it's going to be at least 85/15

IM = International Motors, the British Subaru concessionaire, and yes, 85/15 in favour of turbocharged cars, but this is a very rough figure.
