it will pull better as the flow of exhaust will be much better.
Not sure what a 'gatter noise' is though

What chip do you have?

Worth opening the ecu up to have a look at what the chip is.
The turbonator imo is a worthless piece of crap if it was worth it for the price they charge for it car manufacturers would fit them as standard.
