Fixed that for you
The original is more correct, I would say. It doesn't matter how hot it is, or how high pressure, if the exhaust gases are not moving through the turbine it's not going to do anything.

The velocity through the turbine comes from the difference in pressure from one side to the other. If you have no difference in pressure you can have the same or more energy (pressure, heat), but no rotation.
