Analysing from back to front, in your main line, after 25...axb3 I get with
material only evaluation (German piece letters: S->N, L->B, T->R, D->Q):

Pawn value is 0.8, so this is 2 pawns. It is no proof, because I cannot see how
to prove that with longer analysis white cannot win back material.

I gave up to go further back, because I could not find a material advantage of 2
pawns fast for your line 25. c3 Bxa3 26. Nf3 Bxb2+ 27. Kxb2 Rxd2+ 28.Nxd2 a3+.
What I found is N+3Ps (for black) vs. R here only. But I also did not try for
longer time.

Dieter
