Default Gutted Cat

How much more hp do you gain with a single gutted cat in a Y-pipe? I just had mine done and my car seems to pull a lot more from take-off at a light. And it sounds alot more deeper tone and aggresive now. Later

I have heard that you lose a lot of power when you run a single cat vs. a dual cat in a y pipe. So if this is true you probably did gain a lot of power.
