No.

An exhaust will do nothing but makes lots of noise. To get the full benefits from an exhaust, you should also have an intake and some kind of headers as well.
Make lots of noise?... yes, the sweet sound of a free-flowing exhaust just like my full stainless 3" turboback GHL. Best mod I ever bought... by far.
 
Yeah, I do want a louder, more free-flowing exhaust. Are there any yet for my car?

As far as what I want to achieve, I want to go for street performance.

You can talk to Kooldino and Street Unit has some stuff... look around and you'll find things. Also check the MS3 forum threads for posts from people who have done things already etc.

I have never ever, heard of a car with a factory turbo that the exhaust was not one of the best first upgrades. It will give the turbo better spool time period. So even if for some strange reason it does not increase HP it will still give a more agressive TQ curve. And no one makes "headers" for the new gen speeds yet so that is not even an option. Im not trying to flame anyone, and i might even be wrong, but i doubt mazda enginered the best exhaust for this car from the factory.

Yeah, definitely a good point... Free up the back and then fix up the front.
