Here's what I think...say you ordered the F.I. CBE w/18 res....

(F.I. CBE w/18 res. w/stock cats) < (F.I. CBE w/18 res. w/RHFC) < (F.I. CBE w/18 res. w/HFC)

Like someone said on the previous page, it would be like the same comparison as the F.I. CBE w/o res. vs F.I. CBE w/18 res.

So to answer your question, with a doubt that it will be louder than the stock cats. How much I don't know, but it won't be as loud as the non-res HFCs.

That's the best anyone can say without an official review with video or whatever
