It's not too bad, if you stay between 2000 and 3000rpm you hear a slight rumble but you can still talk to each other, listen to the radio, etc. Offcourse it all depends on your right foot, but coasting around in the city shouldn't be a problem. I think it's a little bit less loud then with the Milltek alone.
But compared with the cold starts everything is very silent
The cold starts are terrible, even with tweaks its very loud.
But I need to update my ROM definitions to tweak that a little bit more

If you go WOT it's loud but not that loud you have to start yelling at each other with megaphone's.
Around 4500/5000rpm you hear the engine more than the exhaust.

I must say, your CBE is very loud, I think it is louder then my Milltek with a cat delete.
I think somebody needs to measure it with a DB-meter to be sure
