I don't think it will, but, I'm not expert in such things. Just stands to reason that an engine almost 2x the size will need a bigger (more volume capability) pump.

So we all know that the supercharged engines need the intake bypass valve so they work in reverse. Otherwise the supercharger would just suck all the air out of the cylinder. So knowing that, how does the turbocharged version work in reverse? The engine is trying to suck air backwards, yet the turbo wants to spin forward so I don't see how it works.
