Not THAT much louder... just enough to let you know there is actually a real engine in your truck and not a prius/golf cart motor (yes a prius is a golf cart in my book... it's powered by batteries and an electric motor).

Take it out man... I wanna hear that thing roar! It will be significantly louder, but you've already taken out one cat so taken out that one will be less of a shock then taking out both at once.

Yes, remove all cats!! Hell I had headers with true dual straight pipes no cats for a month or so and it really wasn't that loud (in my opinion) under normal driving conditions but if you got on it...it would wake the dead haha. I could be heard from a mile or two away if I got above 3 grand.

If you want to hear loud drive with open headers. I did that on the way to the exhaust shop. It hurts your ears even taking off normal.

I probably will take it out eventually but for now I am going to tint the windows and put on some F250 springs so my funds are limited at this time. I also broken my foot Saturday so not getting around real good but I still want to get a video of it now to see how it sounds in a video. I've driven it about 100 miles since and it's louder now than the first day and just sounds good to me. I'm off work today so I'll try to hobble outside and take a quick sound video and post later
