Default exhaust sound

I am looking at pacesetters with my magnaflow I have now. My question is how will it sound with a y pipe without cats. Or do I really need to get cats.

How loud will my car be with pacesetter headers, ory, and magnaflow catback? Just driving around town or highway (in 6th gear it pulls 1800 rpms at 80 miles per hour) will it have a reasonable sound level or will it be to loud?

It wont be that loud at all. It's the exact same setup I have. I'm thinking of switching to a louder catback...
Here's a vid I made of my setup.

Not too loud at all and I think it's raspy as hell. I think I'm going with TSP True duals with sweet thunders.
