Default Can I get these Super 44's louder?

Ok, I've posted here 2-3 times and talked about switching to another exhaust. I'm currently running Flowmaster Super 44's, but they are too quiet. They do seem to give me more throttle punch and overall aren't that bad, but they are just too quiet at idle and only roar decently when I step on it. What can I do to add a louder exhaust note without really having an illegal setup or requiring a tune? Any ideas?

High flow cats or an off road midpipe are the only way you're really gonna add volume.

And does this require a tune? So I can just find an off-road mid pipe that can be added in and then re-weld the Super 44's back on after that? Whatever I add in, it needs to have cats. Will adding a new mid-pipe cause the check engine light to come on? Sorry, just don't know what this is going to do. Help appreciated.

I had Pype Bombs. Only sounded good when I got on it and at the crank. They droned like hell though and I was losing back pressure. That's why I got the Super 44. I have considered SLP, but I've heard similar issues with them.

Also if I get a set of mid pipes with let's say high flow cats, I can still use my stock headers right?

LOL @ BLACK MACHINE. I have considered getting the SLP and just forgetting it. But I thought maybe I could just add in an H-pipe with cats with the stock headers and the Super 44's to that? Those Super 44's are welded in to my understanding. I guess I could use an after the market mid pipe with those couldn't I?

Well the main question is ...is this going to sound good? The Super 44's are "ok" don't get me wrong, but I would like them more opened up. They don't drone at all, so what I am aiming for is just that same sound, but more volume and thought this might do it.
