Have whoever tuned the car flash your car back to stock, it should be free to do.

From you sig it looks like you are running enough whp/wtq to make you engine pop with a stock exhaust under heavy accelerations.

Use a silencer, but it still can increase engine knock even though you are using a 3 inch exhaust. If you go ahead and use a silencer I would check the vitals of your engine to see if you are getting alot of engine knock under wot load.

if you are tired of the loud a** exhaust, there are other Aftermarket Exhaust that are quiet as stock.

you got an Evo dude, don't expect it to be quiet !

It would depend on the timing set in the tune. Putting the exhaust back on should swing you rich if anything, but if the timing is aggressive you'll get knock. So, yes ... re-tune.
