The scavenging they're referring to probably between the engine and the turbo and not after the turbo. Because I would think that once it reaches the turbo and passes through it you're introducing a huge variety of varying conditions that would make pressures post turbo very difficult to calculate/rely on. Especially since the turbo itself will act as an agent to increase the back pressure. It's probably more important on NA DI engines, I wouldn't be surprised if they were even more sensitive to back pressure then normal NA engines.
