Default Exhaust help

So i have a problem guys Currently I am running stock manifolds into stock y-pipe where i deleted my cat, custom cat back stainless steel mandrel bent tubing to a magnaflow over the axel running two dumps before the rear. I like the sound, its not too loud but its got a nice tone to it. The car has very little if any rasp at all... I just purchased LPP longtubes and the ORY. Im actually really scared that im going to hate the way it sounds when its done. Ive been wanting to change the exaust to maybe a borla xr-1 and run it dumped before the rear. (i saw pictures on here but cant find it anymore please help me track that down) With the Y-pipe ive heard of alot of people getting rasp and I dont want that sound at all... I know if i put a cat or a high flow cat that would help that problem. I know if i went with the true dual set up that would also solve that problem. the true dual setup from LPP would only be and extra $250 if i send my Y back. I have yet to here a lt1 with the LPP headers and TD set up. Please help me find an exhaust that wouldnt be raspy while running my setup.. I know its my car and its what i like, but what i like would involve getting a cam and i dont have the money for that right now.. Please help I dont want to waste all this money in 10 different systems that i hate lol... thanks in advance guys

well one of the best catbacks with no rasp is the Hooker, it has a really deep tone and is also pretty tame with longtubes and offroad y

ive already got the magnaflow... i was kinda thinking about getting rid of it and going with something lighter since that huge piece weighs so much... I like the sound but kinda bored with it though... Should i just keep it since everything else is going to bolt right up and see what i think?...
