Obviously the 3.7L NA in our car is going to trump the 1.8T in that car 10 times out of 10. However, all things being equal, if the desplacement is the same, the engine with FI is definitely going to be more potent, and with 1000 dollars of mods in the car it will definitely have an edge.
I don't think anyone sane is thinking to REPLACE a 370Z with a Juke. Just that it can be made a relatively quick, unique looking, and fun daily driver, for a pretty reasonable amount of money. The fact that it is turbo should mean it's potential compared to an N/A with the same HP/size should be higher.
