Yeah, a similar way to get the same sound is just to shoot a hole in it. Works just as well haha... I remember when I was a kid we had a Pontiac Parisienne with a 305, and the muffler got a hole in it on a gravel road or something, man it sounded bad-***, almost the same as a performance muffler. Sometimes having a rusted muffler isn't a bad thing!
But yeah, he'll notice if it's straight piped, the sound is noticeably louder. Unless he's got a hearing aid already and is insensitive to noise, I wouldn't try it!!

edit:
he does have a lot of hearing damage so that probably helped
all he heard was increased drone.
