Default While doing exhaust work

So im pretty sure everyone did this when changing their exhaust. Yesterday went to our shop to put on my m2 axle back. While the axle back was dropped, i decided to see how it sounds just having nothing after the resonator. to my damn surprise it sounded like a beast, i was suprised i had no farting or crackling for the 3.5. It was just a very deep loud VWWOOOOOOOM sound lol.

I took a video of it on my iphone but i dont think it gives the full sound of it no where near actually. But i almost though about just leaving it like that )))

Video Uploaded, we couldnt rev to loud because we are not allowed to be working on sunday in Bergen County, we turned the compressor on for 5 minutes, somehow our owner got a call from the town that we were working in the shop.

I wonder how it would sound with no exhaust and an aftermarket mid pipe?

That cause it still has the resonator to filter the sound.
