Thats what I did with mine - I used a Dremel Multitool with a small cutting disc but you could use a drill or anything suitable to cut the welds. The noise is a *little* louder but very acceptable with the odd POP as you change down for traffic lights and none of the multiple shotgun blasts that it had without the baffles.

It looks much better by the way...
