non turbo charged and turbo charged aircraft

Am I right in think that a turbo charged aircraft would reach 2000 feet faster than a non turbocharged aircraft because

the turbocharged engine is simulating sea level pressure all the way up to 2000 feet so no power is lost

whereas the non turbocharged aircraft would be losing power while climbing to 2000 feet

thanks for opinions
