Question Headers Loudness?

Quick question, I already have a GTHaus midpipe and might put on a Tanabe Axleback but also might want equal length headers.
I was wondering how loud the following would be at cruising in eco mode and WOT:
- Headers and Midpipe
-
Midpipe and Axleback
- All 3

Thanks in advance!

Depends on type. UEL headers have much more cabin drone than EL headers. UEL have a more loopy sounding idle while EL idle is more exotic sounding.

Above 65 mph
- Headers and Midpipe - usually you will get drone depending on the setup, and it is loud during low gears and above 65 mph, also it will sound nice but depends how loud you like it, and if it is not catted it smells. you will get good HP and torque gains.
- Midpipe and Axleback - usually no drone most of the time depending on the midpipe and the axleback, and loud when pushed, but it will sound nice with some HP and torque gains.
- All 3 - definitely you will get drone, and it is very loud during low gears and above 65 mph, and if it is not catted it smells. this setup is very loud. you will get the most HP and torque gains.
