i would have to disagree with that, the 8v is definately better in the lower rpm range, having driven both i do feel that it does have a bit more torque somewhere lower down, although i do agree the 16v will sing up the higher revs and beyond (anything above 5k i reckon)
i would be curious to see what would happen if you got an 8v and 16v head, and had them both p+p to flow the same (or as close to) i dont think that anybody would blow that kind of money to prove such a small point though, and i would agree.
