Gutted cat vs delete

Hi there! I have an 06 6.0 with muffler deleted and gutted cat.

Does anyone know if it will sound any different if I completely delete the cat?

Thanks!

If the cat is gutted a cant see a delete would change the sound much at all.

Going by the EBP readings I do not notice any difference running either with Kitty or with Delete other than the exhaust note.

MPG is the same too.

My MPG didn't change either after I gutted it.

I would just leave the gutted cat on so at least would like you got one.

^ I'm not worried about that, I'm worried about sound! haha

I will probably go with a 4"TB kit down the road some time.
