Advice on putting on stock exhaust with headers and HFC

Ever since I put my exhaust I've been limiting my driving time. I cant go out late because my neighbors will get mad and I'm most definitely going to get pulled over. I want to put back my stock cat-back exhaust. Are there any videos of stock cat-back exhaust with after-market headers and HFC?? I've searched all over and I cant find anyone with this set-up or similar.
BTW- when my stock cat-back was being removed, it was cut right before the flange that connects to the y-pipe. So pretty much, I have to put on a new flange and I was thinking of putting on a resonator in between that space so that my exhaust will be even quieter. I know it will extend the exhaust a bit but that wont be a problem.
What are your opinions on going back to stock cat-back??

What aftermarket exhaust are you using? Trying to see if there are quieter options for you other than stock

I have RSR GT2 cat-back. Very similar to top speed. I probably will buy another exhaust but not until I sell the one I have now, thats why I want to put on my stock

From what I remember the RSR is one the loudest exhausts for the vq so any other option would lower the volume lol. If you want to lean towards the more quiet side I would go with fujitsubo.

As for the stock exhaust, I don't see any problem with it but I wouldn't add a resonator unless you plan on keeping it. No point if you're guna go aftermarket later anyways.

I checked out the fujitsubo and it sounds pretty good but I still have to search up and see how loud it is with headers because if its still loud, then I'll end up where I started.

I was told that if I put back my stock exhaust with the headers, It'll sound like a fart can. Is this true?

I have heard others complain about oem exh with hfcs getting a little raspy.
Not sure if headers would exacerbate the rasp even more.
