Resonators

Have you considered swapping mufflers? Most of the aftermarket axle backs are going to be raspy when combined with long tubes and off road pipes. For this reason I am running OEM 13-14 GT500 mufflers, at cruise the car is quiet but has a very aggressive tone under throttle. I'm running Kooks long tubes, off road x, borla over axle pipes, and OEM gt500 mufflers.
I bet if you added cats it would take a lot of the rasp out.

Only way to minimze the rasp is either put cats back in or go for a chambered muffler like the GT500 axle backs. I have no cats, h pipe, and resonators on stock headers. Even with borla touring it still sounds kinda raspy to me though I think it's fantastic at WOT.
This has not been my experience. I run the long, 23"/18" x 3" Dynomax Bullets where the stock resonators reside and have had no rasp on anything but 2 chamber Flowmasters. Needless to say, they were removed after one drive, back in early 14'.
I don't think my resonators are that long they may be one size down from that length-wise. Could be part of the issue. People also seem to have some variance in what they personally consider to be "rasp" and what isn't. So there's that too.
I do really like the touring at WOT. I can't even hear the supercharger now. It sounds flat wicked to me and is way louder than I expected. Light throttle sounds good too. Just not a big fan of the mid-throttle note.
