348 Tubi/test pipes versus Tubi/Hyper-Flow combination

Hey guys,

I have a Tubi exhaust and test pipes (no catalytic converters) on my car; and while the sound is the most fantastic, offensively loud F1 sound I and anyone else I know have ever heard, I want to change it because I have come to realize that it is a bit too loud. It is so loud that I am afraid to take the car out! Even if I'm going 10 m.p.h., it sounds like I am going 100. Driving my car the way it is now just announces to the police that I'm around. I am going to change it.

Anyway, what I need to do is buy replacement catalytic converters because I would never put the factory ones back on there. Of course, my first instinct is to buy the Hyper-Flows. (I already have Hyper-Flows and the stock muffler on my Mondial t. This combination is surprisingly quiet.).

What I would like to know is this: how loud is the Hyper-Flow/Tubi combination? I'm thinking that, while loud, it cannot be nearly as loud as the test pipes/Tubi combination. Your thoughts? Does anyone have a sound or video clip of the Hyper-Flow/tubi combination?

What do you guys think? Will it still be too loud?

On another note, is there a catalytic converter on the market that restricts air flow a little more than Hyper-Flow? I definitely want to keep the Tubi sound, but I don't want to put Hyper-Flows on the car if the resulting product will be too loud.

PS Dino, you can't have your test pipes back!!
