Should I make a drain hole in my new muffler?

I just got a Walker SoundFX muffler and there is no drain hole for condensation. Should I make one?

No thoughts on if I should have a drain hole for condensation or not?

I talked to someone at Walker and was told that mufflers that needed a weep hole where designed to have one and others that didn't need them didn't have them.

The original had it and the walker replacement does not but then again it is also 4" shorter than the original. I do 20 miles each way to and from work so I guess I'll just see how things hold up.
