It's a pretty major/hardcore mod IMO.
We never asked
why you wanted to do this. So, why? Sound mainly? If so, this mod isn't the way I'd go. It's really less about sound, and more about power (and to some degree heat reduction if you track).
If you're after sound enhancement, the easier route is either an axle-back or axle-back + RE X-Pipe. (I say RE, because the Supersprint doesn't seem to yield much sound enhancement.) Another route would be the Gruppe M intake.
Plenty of threads and discussion on axle-backs and X-pipes, drone, loudness, tone, etc. around here. Here is a
recent exhaust thread, here's the
Exhaust Fest Comparison Thread (tons more on exhaust if you search) and here's
one on install (axle back is an easy install, x-pipe a bit more involved).
