I was in the same boat with my Cayman R. Go with high-flow headers (catless or 200-cell cats) and you will have all the howl you desire. With the factory PSE closed, my R is now slightly louder than it was previously with them open. The power is nice too.
Useful info, thanks.

If you were local I'd say let's meet up. With catless headers + PSE open, the car sounds at higher RPMs like a high-displacement sport bike (like a 'busa).
