While this is true for the M3 vs. the 135i, that logic doesn't really work for any other car. Usually turbo engines need to build revs and N/A engines have torque down low. It just so happens that the twin turbo N54 was designed really well as a turbo motor (enough stroke to keep torque while not suffering high end flow/boost targets.) and the M3 was built more for the track than street driving
