Stock manifold + catless mids ---> long tubes + catless connections = Louder?

I have searched and not found anything on the subject, but if I missed a different thread, please direct me to it.

I am currently running CAI, JBA Catless Mids, Muffler Delete.

I just purchased 1" 7/8 LT headers with catless connection.

My question is, since I am already running a catless system, will there still be a jump in loudness?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Yep...... it will be louder. LTs are less restrictive than the factory manifolds.

That's what I was guessing. Do you, or anybody else, know roughly what % volume / how many decibels I should expect to gain?

Yeah, it's going to be pretty loud!

And if you add a cam, it'll be even louder.

Loud. I have had a muffler delete ever since I bought the car. I got a cam last year and still have a muffler delete. I am soooo used to it tho, I dont think it is loud anymore. HAHA
