Default test pipe

For those who are running the car with a test pipe, how much louder is it comparing to when you have the catalytic converter?

Not even that noticable. Go for it. Are you turbo? If so it defianetly isn't much louder. In fact... it will be less loud than an N/A car with a cat.

I have a SC..needless to say, it's loud...and I don't like noise..

Tanabe is loud as f*ck. I got Tanabe G-medallion, used it for like 2 months...got rid of it cuz I can't stand the noise...

I have Greddy EVO, no cat.... personally I think it's very quiet. I can hardly hear the noise whether cruising on freeway or local streets.
