If you are a mature buyer and this will be your only car than the FRS is not really an option for you so turbo would not make someone choose it over the WRX. I will give you that.
If you a mature buyer are looking for a fun second car that could work as a DD and and autox or track car than the WRX and BRZ absolutely are contenders. This buyer either has a family with a second car so the practicality is nice but not the deciding factor. The WRX is plain faster and still handles pretty well so that is why many people go with it. If the BRZ was turbo and similarly priced they would have gone BRZ without question.
If you are a kid you just car about being fast, and fast in a straight line so you can destroy people at stoplights. The WRX is faster stock and easier to make even faster so it is the clear choice. Now add a turbo BRZ and they kid will pick it every time.
So in 2 out of 3 buyers the turbo brz would hurt sales.
