What's louder? td's or get catted ory pipe

I am waiting on a sale to happen so I want to see what sounds better/louder?

td's I'll get more hp and air flow so i'm aiming that route but not 100% sure.

ls1sounds doesn't help since alot of their vids have cams on their ride

Well you can not get a catted ory because a ory is a y pipe with out cats. True duals will be louder than a exhaust with a y pipe.

true duals also tend to have interior resonance if they are dumped, but it can be helped by angling the exhaust outwards or running them out the back.

ORY tend to sound loud, but raspy go with the TDs.

TD will sound cleaner. Ypipe will have some rasp, expecially ory. TD will be louder, MUCH louder if they are dumped. Not quiet as unrefined if they are run out the back of the car.
