Gutted cats sound the same as an off road EXCEPT at certain times, they'll pop. The empty chamber where the converter's guts were make an air pocket and it'll get forced out. The ones I've heard get annoying really quick, there's no way I'd have gutted cats. I'd say either cut them out and replace with straight pipe or get an off road mid pipe.
