get an off road H or X pipe and replace the mid pipe with the cats with this new pipe and it will be much louder for sure.

Yep like Roundman and nemethjames said i was in your shoes i had 40 series mufflers and it was quiet so i took off the stock h-pipe and put on a BBK x-pipe it sounded so much better those 4 cats plug things up when it comes to sound I am alos putting BBK equal lenght ceramic coated headers on this spring but get a off road x-pipe it will wake things up.
