Will a test pipe make it loud?

[GeneralChaos]

Considering just replacing my old clogged cat with a test pipe, this will be the only replaced peice of exhaust (need 2.5" right?) will it make it really loud? or will it remain almost as low as stock, I know it will be somewhat louder.

Louder and slightly more high-frequency noise.

It sounds very sexy though

It will be louder but not that much. Youll be able to notice a difference with it but it wont be extreme

Little bit louder but not too bad, also more power..

yea im trying to get some of my power back, my car loses to a 15.3 second GTP, my stock turbo spools at over 3k, so I figure this is the oringal cat, and at 108k im sure its clogged like crazy, hopefulyl get some spool time and hp back.

thing is I might be selling the car come spring, so I dont want it to look to modded.

Are there any gaskets I need to buy with one? Or will an exhaust shop have what they need. probly getting one off slowboyracing, 2.5" is like $55 bucks.

Most dealers usually ship them with gaskets. Just ask when you order.
