Yes it dumps into the atmosphere. Yes there is a performance benefit (mostly not disrupting the turbine exhaust flow and not adding additional volume to the regular exhaust). At 6psi it was quite noticeable (not any louder than the regular exh). At 10psi all I hear is turbo and filter noise. Cant hear it at all. Might have something to do with the filter mounted on the turbo but I cant hear the wastegate.

I hated that sound of the wastegate opening up..not only cuz that's the end of the Booost but cuz it sounds like an open exhaust. Plus it vents rite into your engine bay. I had my dump tube welded back into the downpipe. Now all I hear is the spool and BOV

I plumbed mine back into the downpipe just because it sounds like total crap if you don't.
Here's a pic:
