Quick Silver exhaust with catless downpipe

So I currently have a Quicksilver exhaust installed on my car with a stage 1 manic tune. The pops and bangs that come from it are incredible, but I was hoping to get a bit of a throatier note out of it by installing either a catless downpipe or a 100 cell downpipe. My only concern is that the pops and bangs will become too loud. being that I live in Cali I kind of have to keep my car on the down low when it comes to exhaust modifications. Is anyone else running a Quicksilver exhaust with a 100 cell cat or catless?

With any downpipe it is for sure going to get louder. If you already think it's pretty loud I would go with the Akrapovic 100cel DP as it will be a bit quieter, but still make good power and fit perfect

If you want to go catless the Milltek is awesome with it's cast flange and top pipe, but also on sale right now

Go catless but add a Vibrant Resonator.

My plan is to just remove the exhaust and the down pipe when the time for smog comes, and just throw them back on afterwards.
