The problem with mine was that my car, 4EAT, wouldn't lock into gear. So, yeah... they couldn't dyno it. What I heard was that it would downshift, which made it unsafe. But it was okay. It was fun meeting everyone.

3" on an N/A? doesn't that rob it from back pressure? You should be running like 2 1/4" or something. You probably would pull another 8 or so hp out of that thing. My RX-7 was turbo, and a non turbo RX with the same exhaust set up was louder at engine rev, because my turbo acted like a muffler as you say. Once I was able to spool my turbo when driving my RX it was almost as loud.

Mike said that some ATs can lock into gear, and some ( newer ones ) cant. mine did, for a 94, so i guess its kinda hit and miss on that issue.....
