Default Critique my exhaust idea

I have a Huronspeed v3 AC kit on my car. I bought a 4" bumper exit exhaust and my idea is either to tie it into a full exhaust or just run a 2.5" bumper exit out the other side with a 100 cell metal cat and a glasspack (like pictured below). I will be using a vacuum cutout and if needed will install a vacuum pump. I'm wondering with the valve closed how much louder the 2.5" side exit with a glasspack and maybe cat would be over full Magnaflow system.

It looks good, I had a similar idea with my last car.
I'd run the 4" dump to the fascia for max power and run a single 2 1/2 or 3" to the back of the car with a magnaflow muffler.
Best of both worlds.
My current car has a bumper exit only and I don't miss the rear exit at all.

Most likely I will install the bumper exit as is for now and see if I like it. Currently the car has a Magnaflow system with the Huronspeed 3" dp tied into it. The car has a boost cutout welded in under the driver's seat but its too close to the ground for my liking. I can't even get out of my driveway without hearing an awful scraping noise. I feel like its a situation where either I remove it or it will be removed for me! Plus the exhaust tips are at a janky angle right now, the shop welded up the pipe under the car way too long so one tip forcibly sticks out several inches further than the other. Not happy about the whole exhaust situation.

I love my bumper exit, its loud but not obnoxious and I get to hear all the turbo noises.
