IMO if you like the "rice" honda sound you will love straight pipe. Mine is borderline rice and its catless with the Hahn exhaust.
When I had my cutout (since removed) it sounded TERRIBLE at idle. Like complete ass. I imagine straight pipe will sound similar.

On my SC, i cut out the muffler and dumped it out the side. Still has the cat, and everything else is still stock, and sounds pretty bad-ass IMO. It's really loud at WOT and idle's really deep. It's very throaty, not ricey.

I installed a catless dp with a 3" straight through side exit. It stayed on the car for a day and came right back out.. Sounded like complete ass IMO. It needs at least a resonator somewhere to tone things down a bit

I have the Hahn Mod-Pipe with the cutout section, and the Electric Cutout. That's just about as close to running a straight pipe as you can get. And it sounds badassa t idle because you can hear that turbo, and the pops... 
But it just gets obnoxious as the revs go higher.

The straight will sound awsome if u use a 18" echo tip on the end with a 1 1/4 inch ring welded on the outside of the tip . my car is super deap sounding with no cat an a 3" pipe inplace of it but it was lower with the catt just barely but with the straight pipe i gained alot of power but u have to have back pressure with the ring . Ive tryd 9 exhuast an its the best performing on the car an lowest an meanest sounding you just gotta do it right. cus ive tryd 9 ways of exhuast it can be done an sound awsome just gotta pull it outa gear an role by the cops

Here's your old downpipe in use.

^^That's catless dp, stock resonator, straight through muffler. There are a couple videos of straight pipes/side exits, but I don't think they sound as good as some sort of resonator/muffler setup.
