Exhaust install aftermath questions?

I just recently installed a 3" Buschur Catback with a test pipe (still need to install the dp)

Anyways, I'm not sure if this is normal or not. A simple yes or no would put my mind at ease. But i've noticed that the PSI has gone up a little. About 2psi higher on my boost gauge is what it's reading.

So is this normal for putting in an aftermarket exhaust?

And also after putting it on, when I hit full boost my rpms go down majorly slow too. It started doing this after I reset the ecu after putting in my anti foulers when my CEL came on. Anyone know what may be causing this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

less backpressure so the turbo flows more air

I have the regular BR muffler. I'm free most of the time as of right now. But I gotta still install my downpipe, and fix two small exhaust leaks that are coming from the Exhaust clamps. After that i'll have no problem showing you the exhaust. It still sounds great as of now but during start up from dead stops you can really hear the leaks.

And it's not BR's fault for the leaks. Just my dumbass self installing it wrong lol

and thanks guys for answering my question
