It's ace in the hole is that it increases exhaust velocity, which reduces spool time. It's basic physics, that 15 years ago, I was shocked studying high school physics, hadn't been used before. It's now a cheap and effective way to improve efficiency of small capacity turbo engines without the complexity of variable vane geometry. The best control method is simply, vacuum; essentially a reverse waste gate.
If you want it to be quiet but without the restriction, there are loads of good muffler options I'd consider first.
