Default invidia test pipe noise?

hey just put on my invidia v3 and its really loud...now im thinking about getting the T1r test pipe, will this increase or decrease the noise level? and what else can I do to make the noise level just a little less without putting the silencers on
thanks

the only different in sound that you'll get between different test pipes is straight test pipes vs. resonated test pipes. the resonated one will be a little more quiet.

When my test pipe was in there without silencers I thought I was going to loose my hearing ASAP.

so I put the cat back in and the sound wasn't quite as loud but I found it droned a bit more.

Cat with silencers is my DD set up and it's not loud at all.

I'm fairly new to car mods... Is a test pipe california legal? Like if you were to get pulled over by a cop, and he looks under and sees that you have a test pipe, would you get a fix it ticket? Also no cat is illegal correct?

test pipe is not legal in California(i.e.-the strictest state with regards to car pollution)

also test pipe=no cat
