What do you think about turner exhaust?

since i believe that M5, already had more than enough power,

and also i'm trying to save more on inside (aiming for functionality more than branding) (carbon intake etc)

i wanted to purchase a turner motorsport race inspired exhaust?
it is quite cheap,
but what i didn't understand is when i mail them and they admit that this system does not contribute any power gain? (appreciate the honesty)

but isn't removing the muffler means better flow ? means more horsepower?
i just personally think this is the same as RPi gtm exhaust just with different and more civilised cats?

for intake i'm planning to get Afe, this way i can get the engine modifications done under 5000, since i am dreaming to save up for the amazing BBS RI-D !

Thanks

Id say if your turning up the boost with a piggy back any restriction removed will make some sort of gain. I think if you pair with downpipes then you've removed two bottle necks... But then the car is pretty loud.
Cold start with the turner is almost embarrassing. If its early i keep the garage door shut till it levels off. Then its fine. You get some drone at 1800rpms but its not terrible since the car is well insulated. I actually drop the windows to enjoy the sound. Im like a 22 year old when i go under bridges or underpasses lol
