If your just looking for plain obnoxious loud, you could gut the two rear cats, and remove your cherry bombs and replace it with a straight pipe, that would be pretty loud. Or you could just gut the rear cats and leave the cherry bomb.

If you do decide to gut/remove the rear cats just be sure to put the O2 sensor back in the same place or you risk a CEL.

I still have the stock exhaust on my 99, 4.6. What's the cheapest way for me to go about making it louder without replacing it all? Drop a cat and straight pipes out? I would remove both cats but I believe VA prohibits me from removing both of them.

you have 4 total so the back two is what youd take out. on off each manifold. and if anything id do no muffler first then the cats
