In that case, I might just get the thing welded up, and add the test-pipe when I get it.

Mine too except I have 034 hfc and a 14815. It does drone a bit but its not unbearable, even on a dd. Normal driving is pretty tame, nice low rumble, but at WOT it is loud.

When you got your HFC did you have to replace the stock downpipe?

That's

I'm pretty sure 034 designed their cat for stock fitment so it should work with the stock down pipe. Although, i had the shop that built my exhaust do 2.5" piping form the cat back so I'm not 100% sure if it was required. Look up Lazlo@034 on Audizine, he'll be able to tell you for sure.
