anyone using a high flo cat?

hi all, i just changed my exhaust system again on my 5.4, and now i currently have no cat, and a flowmaster 40 series 3" inlet, dual 2.5" outlet. then the outlets have a 4" x 18" echo tip exiting in front of the rear pass wheel. well, this is real throaty, but way too loud. im thinking of getting a high flo cat, rather than putting the stocker back on... what is your advice? i just want to tone it down a little bit....any recommended brands? thanks !!!

I have had some high flo cats installed before, don't know the brand, just told them to put in a high flo. They never seemed to kill the power of the vehicle any, just the sound.

thanks for the relies guys.... im not worried about power, i just want to mellow the sound a little. i know that the stock cats steal a ton of sound, so i dont want to put that one back on, and was wondering just how much sound even the high flo cats will steal.
