I don't know if this is more work than the OP wants but, here's what I did.
Bought a set of auger inserts from JEGS and modified them by welding a metal plug in one end. I drilled holes through the tube in front of the plug to allow exhaust to escape.

I took the pipes to a local welding shop and had them cut the turn outs off. You could do this step yourself but you'd need bigger stones than me.

The augers were trimmed to fit partially inside the glass pack of the pipe. The welded in metal plug was drilled and tapped and a spacer made to allow the auger to be bolted to the turnout.

I then took the pipes back to the welding shop and had the turn outs welded back on with the outlets indexed down about 30 degrees.

Here's them back on the car.

The metallic ring and bark are almost gone at idle and you can have a normal conversation while cruising at 55mph and less. Above that speed you are hollering in the wind.
