Default exhaust sound

ok i am waiting on the engine..and this is my first turbo'd car and i already have a new Apex'i WS2 and complete turbo setup.. so my question is if i run a test pipe will i get that very annoying raspy sound...

i have run the APexi ws2 with no cat on a n/a and it sounded like ****.... but considering i will have a turbines spinning in the exhaust would that cause the sound to be muffled down or will it still sound like my previous setup N/A?

i will be willing to sacrafice power to keep my car quiet by running the stock cat! if thats what it takes.

running crower Stage 2 turbo cams rest of engine is stock

yes. turbo acts as a kind of "silencer" on the exhaust. The turbine also smooths out/flattens the pulses of air coming out of the cylinders, so the exhaust sounds "smoother" as well with a turbo setup.
