I think its definitely worth the time. Only took me like 20 mins, sealed her back up with some RTV and electrical tape so it matched the black. Definitely makes the turbo louder and seems more worthwhile to me than taking out the 'Silencer' Ring. Only thing better I would think would be to replace the whole torque tube with 5" exhaust piping. Can't really imagine you'll get any noticeable performance gains from either, but it sure does make the turbo louder.
