True, but also proportional to boost which can be significant. That's more my point, when boost from a turbo comes into play with good sophisticated controls and plumbing the torque and HP characteristics can be modified a lot more than on a NA engine. Without a turbocharger you're pretty much limited to modifying hard parts like camshafts, cylinder heads and manifolds if you want to alter the output and that can be very expensive and labor-intensive on more modern engines especially how they're packaged into modern cars.
I'm excited for this new turbo I-6 but having it completely replace a V8 takes away some of the excitement. I am hoping at least to see them finally have a RWD performance car (with an IC engine) that weighs less than 2 tons.
