For mild applications I would agree, however when you start running big boost, you run into the turbo flutter/stall problem, becuase the presure is so great and the recirculation to quick at huge boost, you land up stalling the turbo. Which can lead to broken veins and major damage. Thats why the Jap crews remove the the recirculating setup on the supras.
It is easy enough to work out, it just alows you run much bigger turbo setups. I saw this on a friends S3.
