Exhaust Valve System?

Hey guys, I was wondering if there were systems out there like Apexi that allowed us to quiet our exhaust through the use of a opening and closing valve. I currently have a Berk Muffler delete and want to get UEL's. I love the rumble that comes from the set up, I just dont know if I can handle that on long road trips as such I would need something to quiet down the cabin. Any suggestions??? Also I am aware of companies like fi and arkaparvic who use valve systems in there exhaust, I just want to know how i can incorporate a similar valve system into my current set up. Thanks!

it would probably easier and cheaper to just put an invida q300 or similar catback on

There's this: http://www.maperformance.com/map-uni...st-damper.html

But it's for 3" setups.
