Exhuast to tame sound of cam/LT/ORY/Straigh Pipes?
I just purchased a '00 WS6 that needs it's exhaust tamed badly. It is an otherwise stock LS1 with a 227/235 .614 .621 113LSA +2 cam, hooker long tubes, and an off road y pipe hooked to what I call straight pipes (a loud mouth 1 system with an electric cutout placed right after the y, where the resonator would have been).
I want to keep the cutout but want the rest of the system to be tolerable when it's closed. Right now it's ridiculously loud and raspy. What can I put in/on this setup to give it a quieter and more tuned sound without all that nasty rasp and drone? I'm wanting to stay in the $500 range, IF possible.
I'm not adverse to cats either, assuming they're high flowing. Can the ory be catted? Or should I just look into replacing the ory with a catted one and selling this one?
Thanks for any help. I really want to drive my new car, but I will get pulled over the moment I pass a cop with this setup.

Start with a SLP PowerFlo conversion kit #31086($300, which adds 2 slp mufflers before each exhaust tip, then if its still a little to loud add a SLP #31067 ($100) muffler in place of the SLP resonator;Total about$430 shipped.
Another less costly option is to buy a Magnaflow#14419(4" dia.$78ea.) and put it in the I-pipe, and outback you can go with 2 Magnaflow #12866 (5" dia. $87ea.), so about $262 shipped.

They say the magnaflows are quiet and so are the hookers which is what I'm running. Magnaflow is stainless I do believe which is a plus but the hooker on my car is very tame with my MS4.
