That's not the first time.

Back in the 80's,one of the car mags tested the 2.8 Camaro Berlinetta vs the Turbo 2.3 Mustang SVO.

Needless to say, the Mustang beat up, stole it's lunch money, and scattered the Berlinetta's trash all over the yard

Ironically, I think the TPI 305 was closer to the SVO's sticker price than the 2.8. With all the Lima's turbo lag I would bet on the 305 in spite of it's "made the intake runners too long and now I peter out at 5000 rpm" intake.
