Default Can N/A cars get more torque than bhp?

I was at a rolling road at the weekend and the results seemed a bit strange to me Like a 1.6 focus getting more torque than my 1.8 and some N/A cars getting more torque than BHP.

I thought this only happened with charged cars to get more torque than bhp or am I wrong with that

Here are the results

Focus 1.4.............98.9........105
Mondeo 2.5 V6....184.1........170
