Sides maybe come to the Dyno day and have a chat to Trevor at CES in regards to making something that makes power but is still under the limit.
I developed a cat back system with them for a Sportivo corolla a few years ago. Made good gains (9kw atw) and improved torque nicely. But it was hell
loud so Trevor set about rectifying getting the noise down and custom made a rear muffler to suit. Outcome was noise was under the legal limit by 3 DB
and the power stayed exactly the same.
CES ain't cheap and I'll be the first to admit that but you get what you want niose wise and HP gains too.

Yeah - might do that - the exhaust needs a bit of attention now anyway, so might be a good excuse for a new system !!!

Heh - dunno, but since you're gonna be dyno'ing there BiX I reckon they'll understand the problem pretty well !!!
Hitting 5500rpm in 4th Daimo then you must've really been having some fun...
