Get a RB free flow exhaust and rev away. Just make sure no BANG! Then the parties over.

Free flow exhaust. Either gut the cats, or get rid of them. Also, it wouldn't hurt to go with a straight through exhaust, as getting flames out will be much easier.

Yes, but you will have barely any flames. The thermal reactor is designed to burn off the unburnt fuel. Better to spend the money on a header.
