Correct, Higher load due to the driveline providing less multiplication. Higher load = more exhaust mass flow thru the engine. More Mass flow the turbos can move more air thru the compressor side of the turbo. The two wheels are connected together by a common shaft (for non Turbo readers).
That being said, compared to a 500 rpm increase in rpm NA or Boosted, the same crank at the original rpm will see basically the same stresses or slightly more but a higher HP and torque.
