Small displacement and turbo-charging is a little like skip-shift. It produces small efficiency increases on the EPA's dynos, but does nothing for you in real world driving other than adding an extra layer of completely unnecessary cost and complexity to the car.

It's the rally cry of the already defeated....of those who have accepted that it is the proper for a regulatory agency to dictate what we can drive. Saying "it's fine, it's the same...in fact it's probably better," is a mental defense mechanism that helps the formerly free to deceive themselves into thinking they are still free.
