I'd be interested to see what the actual effect is. I suspect the concern is that it would cause greater exhaust flow to a level that affects air/fuel ratio and causes many minor knock events. Conceivably the computer could be automatically pulling timing out to compensate... But it's also possible I have no idea how the ECU actually works.

It seems like an unnecessary risk with questionable reward.
