Default Stock Open Y-pipe and Manifolds to Headers and Kooks... How much louder?

Right now I'm running an open y-pipe off the stock exhaust manifolds and stock y-pipe, it sounds GOOD. Throaty and not too loud. But my question is, will I still be able to run open if I'm running longtubes and a kook's ORY? Cause if it's going to be a whole lot louder I'll run GMMG with a cutout...
thanks for any feedback

Its going to be louder...a lot louder.

Go with TD's or a catback/cutout.

Its way way louder, if you feather the throttle you can keep it down, but it sucks cause you can't accelerate very much unless you want every cop from 2 miles away to come after you. I drove my car this way for 2 weeks while I waited for my true duals, and I didn't get stoped, but I was real careful where I floored it. When you open it up its just like any drag car at the track without mufflers-very very loud.
