Just did this hack to my 1998 Boxster Base. I of course have the welded tips.

I took a long screw driver.

Angled it as much as possible towards the outside of the car so that the tip was on the inside of the pipes.

I held the angle as hard as I could so it wouldn't slip inside the pipe.

I hit it with a hammer a few times to create a hole.

I drilled the hole until it was all the way through being careful to not go any further inside then a complete hole.

The sound is noticably throatier at low RPMs, but there is no difference at the higher RPMs probably due to the much higher flow.

Recommended and easy.
