You are wrong.
Check the powerband of the n54/55 to the s55, the s55 is wider and much stronger at the top. It's much more similar to a gtr in that it continues to make power / not drop power to redline.
It is similar to any modern turbo in that it still makes a lot of average power all throughout the rev range, specifically more than higher revving smaller n/a motors.
