We currently use SAIX shaped accounts for browsing and the speed is fairly good. Will unshaped accounts be any quicker (talking about web browsing here ONLY - no other traffic)?

No. The browsing traffic is given the highest priority on the shaped accounts. Its effectively unshaped.

You are going through the transparent proxies on both the shaped and unshaped accounts... that can also be a bottleneck.
