Default Ark cat back ?

Looking for some feedback on how loud this system is comparison to stock? I've listened to sound clips but it's hard to judge over device speakers. Is it slightly more throaty than stock, substantially louder or wake the whole block driving down the street? Any real world feedback is appreciated.

It’s more of a deep tone sound (not raspy). Doesn’t really get loud till you pass about 3k RPM.

I’ll let you know tomorrow when I’m done with mine. I’m getting ppe headers and the ark exhaust installed.
