No.

A catalytic converter will make a noticeable difference.

if you go high flow its not going to quiet it down much. Id put a normal cat on it. it makes it alot quieter. Youll lose maybe 3whp. woopdeedoo. its worth it

Get a ceramic magnaflow, it will quiet it down and flow better than a stock cat. Metal is better but would be louder. Cheap to get that welded in.
