Muffler bypass: Turbo vs. GT3

For those who have heard both, how do they compare? I love the sound of the GT3 with no muffler... how would it compare to a TT with no muffler? I know a few 6speeders have done it. Obviously I'll miss the 7000+ RPM sound, but other than that, will it sound very different?

The closest thing i've heard to a bypass exhausted GT3 is GMG's WC-GT system. If you bug Fabryce over at GMG enough maybe he'll post a couple fly-bys at WOT for yah.

Yah. Here's the link

Doesnt sound anything like the sound clip though. Here's a link to their WC system which IMO doesnt even compare.

I had a 993TT with muffler bypass pipes and it sounded like S*H*I*T. The turbos mess with the exhaust note and just make a mess of things... my $.02, don't do it.
