y'all need more basics on back pressure of exhaust systems pre turbo back to the piston head and through the exhaust valves.
Did you know that for every psi of boost you get on the compressor side of your turbo charger, there is 3 to 4 psi back pressure from the tiny turbine wheel and blades clear back to the crowns of the piston on every exhaust stroke? What happens once past the turbine, with that kind of pressure buildup, is insignificiant, down stream.
If you are concerned about how your vehicle looks, wash it and wax it more frequently, and store it in a garage when not in use.
