No. Peak torque is tuned for 6600 and just drops like crazy? I don't buy it.
This thing has more compression, likely better combustion, and likely less friction than an F20C which still manages an 800 rpm spread. At the rpms they both run for their peaks the friction is going to be way less on the FA20. That and the fact that a 2GRFSE can push a BMEP 196 psi makes the 151 lb-ft just not make sense.
151 peak @ 6600 is terrible when paired with the 197 bhp @ 7000.
