In the end a turbo is a turbo. Yes the new billet wheels are a bit better, and the turbine wheels are also improving, but in the end the idea is to deliver air/boost to the engine. You just can't make old school V8 torque with a modern high revving V6 which was designed to make top end HP.

Even the twin scroll (most efficient turbo configurations due to superior scavenging) reached maximum torque and simply stayed there all the way to redline, much like an N/A engine. Just my experience with these engines I guess.
