Has anybody in Auckland done this and if so can I have a listen?

Im also thinking of just drilling 4 big holes around the stock outlet.

nz spokes--cone over and have a look at my Hornet. The hislungs have gone and its got a 4 into 1 setup that exits to the right and forward of the back wheel. In all honesty I'd be happy to swap it out for a factory /quiet system

Cheers, I may well do that. Ive drilled holes around the main outlet and that seems to sound good.

This mod can be a WOF issue if done to a point that they are to loud, I use to issue WOF's and us to use a noise level tester for testing aftermarket and modified pipes (which LTSA is pushing for all WOF testers to have and use, not law yet but they are pushing for it) if your bike is over 96dB at 5000rpm it is a fail. The suggestion to remove the final section and to replace it with the larger exit pipes would be what I would suggest to do as this will deepen the exhaust note with out being excessively noisy.

The WOF is not the only issue as some police that specialise in traffic enforcement have been issued with noise testers and if you are pulled over on the road due to excessive noise you get pink stickered. Could be a long walk home for a bit of extra noise if not done wright.
