The benefit of DWL is especially noticeable with my car, since it only has 875 ccm and starts to generate boost very early, which in return and unfortunately increases fuel consumption disproportionally.

On the other hand there are hardly any pumping losses. Even at high rpm engine braking MAP is always at least at 75% atmospheric pressure, but probably more so because the intake valves have substituted the throttle.
