Default Borla Question

I have a borla adjustable exhaust and i want to install lts and an elec cutout at the open plate as described in my sig, but i'm wondering how much louder it will be with the cutout closed going through the borla muffler vs my current setup with it open and stock manifolds/cats.

My open Borla with LT's no cats sounded like *** (nasty un-tuned raspy sound). If you just want to have a noise maker thats the way to go. Sounds better with now that i have a catted Ypipe (TSP catted Y), feels like a got a little more low end toque back as well.

not to be a jackass, but did you read my question? i know what open borla and lts with ory will sound like. thats why im getting an electric cutout installed at the plate. I want to know what it would sound like with CLOSED borla on lts and ory and if it would be significantly louder than my open borla with stock exhaust manifolds and catted y pipe.
