I'm also doing Pacesetters LT's and ORY-pipe, and then Twister-muffler dumped before axel. Will it be loud?
Looking for a descent sound level, and then convert to TDs...

The answer is probably, but it depends on a lot. What other mods do you have? Are you running cats? Are you running the pipes out the back or dumping? And what sort of bullet mufflers are you going to run (core diameter, body diameter, length & make).
All of these will make a BIG difference and it could go from mild to wild.

Longtubes, dumped duals with dynomax bullets and an MS3 is loud, but it's not race car loud (well, not as loud as a real race car). I daily drive that setup and love it.

i have the tsp rumbler w lts and it IS loud. i also have dynomat in my entire car and cabin noise is still there but if you turn the music up it does not bother you. you will also set of car alarms everywhere you go. it sounds very good, it had a deep tone

To put it in perspective a little...
I am a member of the Purdue Automotive Performance Association and most times people get together my car is the loudest and, IMO, sounds the best as well.
Stock engine with open longtubes seemed a bit louder, though it wasn't a back to back comparison so I could be wrong.

It's all about the mufflers and design of the exhaust system.
