the only way to take advantage of the turbo is by lowering your N/A pistons compression ratio, so you can turn the pressure up. so unless you are able to pull the pistons, just stick with a low boost supercharger set up.
Sorry you are misinformed.If your logic was true then the supercharger wouldnt work either. I am personally not a supercharger fan. THe compression on our car is 10:1 the same. Less Compression as my b18c1 in my civic. SO by your logic all the turbo civics running around with stock compression arent making any more power. Its just not true. With higher compression you risk detontation. That is the problem not that it doenst make power
