Default newbie question?

I'm not a newbie but I have a newbie type question. I'm gonna be installing a set of AFR 205's soon and I was curious if a set of heads will change the sound of the car? They have bigger valves and flow more. Just a stupid question.

My friend has a set of AFR's on his cammed T/A with Flowtech LT's, no cats, and a Magnaflow cat back and when he first pulled up I couldn't tell he had heads on it. But all cars are different. Sure will perform better!

not enough to tell a difference, its not the amount its how, like a muffler works by reflecting sound waves to kill the noise it looses its flow therefore the sound is deadened. valves will not affect the sound
