I can't answer your question but why not just go with a turbo back? Besides if you're going to be doing any fueling modifications, you're just going to kill the catalytic converter anyways

Try not to gut it ... some places are doing a "tap test" to see if the internals are still there, and it does sound different when you gut them.

See if you can knock a hole through it instead, then the sound doens't change.
