SLP LM is pretty loud even with CATs. Maybe that'd work for you. Failing that, some other less restrictive muffler or striaght pipe.

also if yo uhave it venting/dumping under the car it will appear louder in the car than it really is.

Well, you are CA. That puts a damper on your power through exhaust. I say keep the current and throw that cut-out up in the mix.
