If you're talking about any turbocharged Impreza, your car already has a dumpvalve fitted, so what you'll actually be doing is changing it for an aftermarket one.
As far as your questions are concerned, the answers are not so you'd notice, and no. From a performance and engine health point of view, there's no reason why you'd want to change the standard valve.
