Nope, read it more closely. It says "Fully-Built Shortblock", which implies not even the fuel system or electrical, let alone a turbo or the associated plumbing. It's just a bottom-end & head built to handle the power a boosted system can create.

It does not include the Head if it's a short block

Bottom line is, its worth the price but your not going to see any where near 500, 400, 300 or 200 with what you get.

But it is worth it for those who really want a solid base for boosting.

You're absolutely right. So a person would also need to add the cost for all the head work required to make that much HP too, along with the turbo system. Mucho $$$.
