The comparison was originally EGT for turbocharged engines vs non-turbocharged engines.

Yes, the temps right out of the head are higher before the turbine vs after for sure, but temperatures going into the cat converter are still generally higher in a turbocharged application compared to an aspirated engine.

I was just salty I got down voted or 'Flagged' or whatever. I completely believe the turbo's higher combustion efficiency means higher temp downstream of the >Turbine<

Was I pedantic? Yes. Still salty though.
