I'll try to do some recording at various stage of acceleration and cruising.
The volume of the sound changes depending on how heavy the throttle is being applied. If my wife drives it, other people will not know that the mid pipe has been replaced. There is some slight drone/resonance at 2.5k rpm under specific condition, namely lugging the engine. With my driving style (mostly in manual mode), the drone/resonance makes an appearance about 5% of the time.

I can recommend Fabulous Fabrications. He is in Rocklea. He has recently been doing a lot of snorkels for 4x4's but before that he was working a lot with the guys at Next Up performance for Intercooler pipes and exhausts, as well as the guys at Ellaspede on a lot of their custom bikes. His work is impeccable, and if you are wanting something more custom done I would talk to him.

Will be enough to get me started, next step will be the hi-flow cat and down pipe, no plans for the rear at this stage

Centre muffler out, can confirm its straight though with a chamber in the middle
Went an 18" stainless wrapped resonator as recommend but is still very quiet - slight blip can be heard in the car but not as much noise as I was hoping
Need to hear what it sounds like with someone else driving from the outside
Def no drone

Which brand reso did you end up using?
No drone when you lug the engine?
The sound usually gets deeper as it bed-in and the DSG blip seems to get louder over time. Cold start will sound different.
The hi-flow cat and down-pipe should fix the quietness
