all depends on the size of your resonators throughout the exhaust system.

there's no way to give you an answer, because volume of sound (in db) is one of the worst things to quantify with words.

It just comes down to what the end goal is: to say "I want something louder and more aggressive but no rasp or annoying things" is very generic. to have something else to compare against is better... but YouTube videos filmed on a GoPro or cell phone doesn't help because of the poor microphone used to capture sound.
