Mark,
I think you'll have to agree that the torque due to nitrous injection at some fixed horsepower level is superior to the torque generated by a turbo at the same fixed horsepower level.
Sure at peak power level Stazi's turbo might have had 280 tq and you might have had the same peak torque. Only you will have been producing that 280 tq from a much lower rpm and pretty much as soon as you hit the juice.
