anyone adapted an air cooled muffler to a 986 ?

I was rummaging through my shed and came across a single inlet single outlet OEM muffler from my long gone 1983 911SC . I started thinking about if it could be altered to use on the beast ? I currently have a GHL twin can muffler which I love the sound of but hate the drone. Seems like all of the twin can mufflers suffers from drone. So why not adapt an OEM banana muffler ? So it would take two bolts welded on top to be used with the Boxster OEM muffler hanger. Cut off the single outlet and weld a patch. Modify the two ends to accept the inlets. Weld on twin outlet pipes centered correctly and voila some air cooled DNA for our Boxster ! Crazy idea ? I should be able to fab it all myself and weld it up with my mig welder.
