So.. no.. its not a marketing gimmick. Turbonormalizing an engine isnt as big a deal, because the engine is not intended to exceed its original "normally aspirated" sea level power rating. A popular engine mod for the Beech B36TC is to swap the TSIO-520-B for a TNIO-550. Better performance and TBO goes from 1600 to 1700 hrs.
