Cat delete is in

So I ordered the cat delete for my stock exhaust from Pure Diesel Power. Great service and fast shipping. Install took longer than I thought it would, but its in. I really like how it sounds. You can really hear the turbo and at WOT it is loud. Just thought I would share. Here's a pic of the pipe.

How loud is loud @ WOT?
Do you notice any cooler exhaust temps or improved mileage?
I could probably get one of these and switch them it out when inspections or trips to the dealer occur.

Not sure about the exhaust temps cause I don't have gauges. As far as how loud it is. I'd say the loudness has double from what it was before without the muffler on.

Yes. Stock exhaust minus the cat and muffler. I had the muffler removed 2 days after I bought it.
