The sounds in the mods for IL2 are much better than the stock game and that includes the external sounds. And I just did a frame rate test using the Black Death track, one for stock 4.101 and one for UP2.01 and the both the average and max frames were actually better for UP2.01! I had vertical sync forced off. The min frames was a little better for stock game at 57, UP was 55.

So great sounds don't necessarily mean a significant performance hit.
