Question HOW LOUD?

I have a BORLA exhaust if i add a cat-less down pipe Tsudo 2.5 diameter how much louder would be? i am concern if i go with the headers route it might be way too loud for my like. Or am i better off adding a mid pipe with resonator for some extra rumble?

Overpipe doesn't change the sound much.
Repacing the stock midpipe which has a cat and a resonator with something without, would likely add drone.
