This is true to a degree. Once people start building the engines, this becomes a problem. Now you have to use a large turbine for the added flow, but you will lose a lot of spool with a kit that places the turbo far from the engine. Also, these engines are not made to be torque monsters, so low RPM boost does not play a big role. This is a high revving V6 and it makes its power at 4500rpm+.

I will have 4 turbine options, so it will cover everything from a stock block to a fully built one.

No such thing, it must be a T4 .68 then.
