As for sound it depends on what exhaust system it is connected to but in every case regardless of what it is connected to, the ART pipes are much quieter than regular resonated test pipes.

I just finished my third "fix". Now I removed the gaskets entirely and used only RTV so we'll see how that goes. I haven't yet removed the steel wool because my car was tuned with the steel wool so I'm confident my CEL is coming from the leak only.
