**** them. it's YOUR car.
the only thing i'd tell you to do is add cats. since you have a GMMG, cats are a great idea and it'll make your car sound a lot better. it'll cut down on the volume, too.
if they confront you and ask you go make your car quieter, ask them for $500 for a new catback + installation. if they don't, i'd tell them to go pound sand.

can you talk to the landlord about maybe switching parking garages? or is it set up like that. I know some peole may think its too loud, but I say its landlords/building's fault the roof/floor is too thin. Not to cast blame, but its not like your illegally modding your stuff. See about working out some comprimise with your landlord if possible. You do have a right to take pride in your car!

neighbors are one of the reasons im gettin rid of the loudmouth. i cant say anything cuz i dont have cats... when i put on the true duals w/cats, if are too loud for them....they can go f*ck themselves
u could always get a hooker catback though. i hear its pretty tame at idle and low rpm but still has some grunt up top

I had to put a 18" bullit in the I pipe with my magnaflow to settle the neighbors down.
Its still plenty loud on the throttle with a off road y and race victor edelbrocks.

As far as noise levels go:
LT's + ORY + GMMG is louder than
LT's + ORY + Magnaflow is louder than
LT's + ORY + Stock catback
I'd recommend the Magnaflow and if you can spring for 'em, get some high flow cats too. If they still complain, tell them to kiss your *** because I'd bet money a catted LT car with a Magnaflow setup meets pretty much most any dB ordinance (as long as you're not hot-doggin it in the garage).
