Joakim, If I understand the term "gear" correctly you are asking if you might need to downshift the turbo more often than the non-turbo. The answer is no. Even though the non-tubo is 2.3L and the turbo is only 2.0L the turbo puts out considerably more torque than the non-turbo. Therefore it will "pull" much better in higher gears than the non-turbo (that is of course unless you try at 1500 rpm. I'd say from about 2500 rpm up the 2.0L turbo would beat the 2.3L non-turbo everytime.
