I'll give my 2 cents! Even though the computer limits the power, I'd guess there will be slightly less backpressure in the exhaust manifold if there's less in the exhaust. I'll say if you reduce backpressure in the exhaust, the turbo turbine doesn't need as much pressure in the exhaust manifold to produce same power to turbo shaft. In any other car with mechanical boost limit, you'd get a few more psi boost but our computer will reduce boost to keep engine power to set levels. THe biggest gain is if you have the better exhaust and increase power with an aftermarket ecu. I'm planning on getting the speedparts 274hp ecu for my viggen. It already has the sporty exhaust and it sounds great. It's not as throaty as my spg but still sounds good.
