I drove around for about 3-4 months with open downpipe. Does sound very beastly like that. The exhaust fumes seep back into the cabin though, that's the only downside to it.

It's incredible worse when you make a mistake like I did. I never set the ECU firewall grommet back in place so the hole was wide open, which just so happens to be right be the A/C fan. So thinking I was helping the problem I set the a/c to recirc, which made it even worse. It just pumped exhaust fume smell throughout the car.
