Straight pipe it but put another turbo between the stock turbo and the exhaust pipe. That helps quiet it done a fair amount.

I have a '06 with a straight pipe but the catalytic converter is still there. It sounds good and definitely louder but not as loud as the earlier models with no cat and a muffler. You can still hear a little bit of turbo whistle even with the cat installed.

Thanks all for the replies. I went ahead and ordered a muffler delete kit. Looking forward to it.
