I've done a fair amount of testing using a cut-out on the stock exhaust. There is something to be gained by reducing exhaust restriction, up to a point, when using a small t-25 style turbocharger. The optimal point was with the cut-out only partially open, around 20% of a 2.5" cutout.

A sweet blend of good exhaust velocity and overall flow capability is necessary.
