Borla Atak + Catless headers, is too LOUD!

So I have the Borla Atak axle back with catless ARH headers along with a stage 2 cam and it's terribly loud. This car is my daily driver and I'm almost too scared to drive it in the city I work in they are very strict. I need help with an axle back that will tone down this exhaust a little. I need suggestions please!

I believe Atak was made for stock manifolds and cats, S-Type for shorty headers and cats, Touring for long tube headers and cats. I am going with ARH long tube headers with cats and Touring.

I'm running Bolra ATAK axle-back with 2" x 3" cat-less LT ARH's and it's the perfect sound for me

You think that's loud? Try cat-less LT's with Magnaflow Comp series. Got my ass pulled over way too many times, changed exhaust to borla and no problem yet!

Dont get me wrong I love the sound but I just cant leave a red light very quickly at all or I will draw alot of unwanted attention.

The magnaflows were MUCH worse

If you accelerate and don't go over 3000 rpms through the cities your car may sound a "little" loud on the inside, but on the outside it sounds just like a "nice" exhaust (done this from experience) Also, if you see a cop just let off the gas the car should become quiet enough, which is another thing I really like about the exhaust...Quiet when you want it, and frickin LOUD when you want it. Just don't go WOT in the city, that's when ATAK get's crazy.

I am curious how a set of LTs would sound with the Borla S type axle back....I really don't want to have my ears bleed...

Here's the video of mine with a light takeoff....

I didn't take any videos of the Camaro with the Magnaflow competition series after the tune...with headers that exhaust is just RETARDED loud and sounds like crap.
