You must use pf/NAT for transparent proxy to work. It's really just a port forward behind the scenes that directs the outgoing web traffic into the proxy. You can disable outbound NAT (what you wanted) without disabling the firewall. Just switch to manual outbound NAT, save, and then delete any rules that show up. If you're on manual outbound NAT and no rules match the traffic, no NAT happens.
