Put some high flow cats on the car, most shops can modify your current setup when adding cats. Should be no need to buy new exhaust, just new cats.

you would be surprised how just adding cats will tone down your exhaust. without changing out your exhaust i don't know if you have too many other options.

buy some short bullets and weld them just ahead of each tip...minimal flow change and it will tone the sound down noticably.

or swap out the LM muffler for something better like the borla XR1
