Studies on absolute load stimulus

Does anyone know of any studies comparing the stimulus of different absolute loads that are the same relative load?

Eg. The growth of squats for 5 sets of 8 at 70% of 1rm, with 1 group with an average 1rm of 100kg Vs another group with an average 1rm of 180kg.

I would assume both would have the same hypertrophy stimulus however I don't have any data to support that.
