Turbos may be a nice cheap way of making an engine of a given output, but
with petrol engines are never as good as a larger NA unit of the same

That simply isn't true. As a general rule the smaller the engine you are
comparing a turbo may reduce overall mpg. On larger engine where
induction losses dominate a turbo can increase economy. It really isn't
safe to make such a blanket statement.

Go on then. Give some real world figures.

And example of the same engine with turbo and without where the turbo unit
gives better MPG at cruise.
