Better reasons to choose an exhaust: sound, appearance.

That applies to most small n/a engines.
For a turbo car, a performance exhaust (3" catback) will def provide more than 1-2HP gain.

I got pulled over for the exhaust on my FD. (it had a muffled midpipe, with a stock cat cover off of a ford f150 tack welded over it.
he ended up giving me a ticket for having the car too low, lol. You can never beat those guys.

That is some funny **** man... hahaa you had me turn my monitor off and laugh. at that one!!
That is the most funniest thing I have ever heard..... When I put on my midpipe I am going to pull the cover off of my Catalytic converter and wrap it around my midpipe.... with a large 3" greddy catback.... that thing is going to be LOUD!!

I started it up tonight again (trying to source an oil leak) and within a few minutes I had 2 different neighbors yelling at me to get a muffler. Can't beat a bridgeport idling at 1500 RPMs with no exhaust..... Other bad thing about DP only is that my cabin filled up with exhaust smoke in 1.2 seconds, I couldn't breathe.
HAHA, yeah, i think i am going to go the LUPE route and go out the side right behind the front passenger side wheel or try a straight turn down and see how long it takes to fill the car with exhaust. Car is also gutted for the most part so loud is the least of my concerns
