Default X-pipe will make it louder right?

Ok so today I ordered my magnaflow x-pipe. Putting it on tomorrow. Friend at school (drives 01 mach 1) said a x-pipe WONT make my car louder, will only help perfomance. Is that true??? He told me to make it louder I would have to take ALL 4 cats off.

Is that true? The reason I bought the x was for sound, I dont care about performance (its only a v6). Maybe he doesn't know what hes talking about.....

Alright good, my cats r stock though.

I know I have 4 cats, should I take the back 2 off, and leave the pre cats on, or just run the catted X with my flows.
