Default Catted v Uncatted

Just a quick question before I make up my mind and dish out some green, does the off-road H pipe from MAC sound THAT much louder than the catted? Thanks

It will be louder without cats, yes, but some people say that taking the cats off of a V6 makes it sound raspy at higher RPMs.

that raspy threat is all i need to hear to steer me away from off-road, but i just dont want it to be quiet with cats, but this would be the h pipe and catback, not just a y replacement, so. im lookin for as beefy as my six can be and sound like a mustang, thats it.

I like catted pipes because they smooth out the sound.A catted X pipe is alot louder than the stock H pipe.
