I'm getting my centre box cut out, and replaced by a straight through pipe
will sound "raspy" and a wee bit tractor like at high revs. Get them to take out the center section and replace it with a stainless section and a smaller silencer, that way the pressure wont be lost and the exhust will still stay loud.

Dont get powerflow as they use crap grade stainless in the pipework, go to longlife there work is top notch.
http://www.exhausts.uk.com
its what im doing, when i rusts through, ill weld another piece of pipe in. its only £6 for 2m of exhuast piping.
you only need 2 ft to remove cat and centre section
