You might want to utilize this relatively inexpensive implement. Once procured, I believe one utilizes this judiciously to your mufflers.
It is one of those so-called "tricks of the trade" - little known, but alarmingly effective, if one wishes simply to increase volume, with no thought to such matters as power gains, weight loss, etc. I believe its proper nomenclature is "ice pick", or some such thing. Be careful, however. Proper technique is of utmost importance, here, and too much of a good thing could well be detrimental to the overall performance of your car's exhaust. Let me know what you think when you're done

An X-pipe is one way, or just have an exhaust shop cut out the secondary cats and resonators and add an X-pipe.
