Yes, but torque starts at a higher point in a larger NA motor, because it comes quicker when you first hit the gas. As I've already said earlier, a FI turbo'd motor can easily put out more torque but there is no way you can rationally argue that a turbo'd engine has the same response and instant torque as a larger naturally aspirated engine.
It appears that we can't come to an agreement. Perhaps you should go over to Toyota and tell them they raced the Supra incorrectly all those years, that a 6 cylinder is the better set up. Or the current Supra hybrid entering in LeMans soon. Or even better, go over to Nissan and tell them the same thing since that's what they also use a NA V8 in their GTR race car!
Or how about this: you're right. Feel better? Good night, chap.
