I have the JIC on my SC4 and it sounds and looks amazing, but I understand you are not into the round canister look.

Searching the forum you will find a bunch of different setups - including mine. I even posted pictures of it like 2 days ago.
If you want a "deep and throaty sound" then I strongly suggest removing the resonators - otherwise it won't sound any different than stock.
Get a custom X pipe, remove the resonators and run dual piping back to your stock exhaust ( if you want the stock look.)

just add a y-pipe from the 3rd cat back and delete the resonators. Do this all with 2 1/4 inch piping and add some Magnaflow mufflers(Or any mufflers of your choice.). Nonetheless, it will sound very good. And I only spent about $400 - one of the best mods I've done so far. The only regret I have was not having this done earlier...

Deleting the resonators does not make it annoying loud at all. In fact, the exhaust note of my car sounds similar to the C5 Vette with Magnaflow up my street.
Anyway, here are some pics:
Magnaflow 14827 Single Walled Mufflers
A few more crappy pics:

i went with Magnaflow, removed stock pipes/resonators/cans from the 2nd cat back, put in 2.25 piping
it does not sound like 'troaty' V8 lol but it does not sound like a riced out you-know-what
at idle it is not loud, you can barely tell that it's not oem, but at WOT it sounds pretty good, lol especially when going under overpass or in a tunnel
