Question Mid pipe

Hey guys, sorry i'm newbish, haha. I was wondering, on my NHBP 2008 Manual Fit, I have a Megan Racing axle-back I installed myself, if I get a T1r, Megan, or some other brand Mid-pipe, will that make it any louder? You think it would be better to invest in Skunk2 instead? Considering going the KWSC way in the future. Let me know guys, thanks for any help!

If it eliminates the catalytic converter it will be substantially louder, but regardless will still be an increase in volume.

a mid-pipe wont delete the cat. Though if the mid-pipe doesn't have a resonator then it will be louder.

Yeah from what I've gathered the Mid pipe is the segment between the cat and the axle back portion of the system? Is this right? I like my Megan exhaust, I just wish it was a little louder sometimes.

Yes if you get a mid-pipe, aka b-pipe, it will get slightly louder.

If you keep the OEM axle-back and just change the mid-pipe/b-pipe, it will also get slightly louder. This one's my favorite.
