...Get a better twin scroll designed turbo that is newer and then you'll see what low end torque is like. Newer designed Billet turbines coupled with a twinscroll entry makes boost come on real quick under 2K RPM. A turbo simply will always put out more low end torque than a V6. I have a buddy who drifts his 350Z and he's put in a 4.1 rear gear and also got lighter wheels, plenum, exhaust, reflash ,etc... Still only puts down 250HP to the wheels and only 220 ftlbs. IMO yes it feels smooth, but really it doesn't offer the same feeling. See video for what a new turbo design spools like. Borg Warner EFR 6758
