If its powerflow its easy take it back and tell them to put a booster pipe in they come in different lengths (the longer the quieter) I went to 4 different powerflow dealers and had 2 different boosters and practically a whole new exhaust untill I was happy with the sound! (didnt cost me anything)

You can get a silenced decat pipe. Will just have baffles in it. Noise wont change but it will have the performance of a decat, and may pop more due to it being better flowing.
