Gutting my cat?

So ive herd alot about the tuned tc's cloging cats and ive noticed soem power loss... maybe its the fact of me moving to FL and still being on a NY tune but i think my cat might be clogged. Just how bad do u think a gutted cat and muffler delte would sound?

Im running catless with no muffler, and as long as im not stepping on it when i pass a cop, they don't even look. But going WOT, will get their attention. Im guessing with 2 cats in series and one punched out, that it will be "tamer" than my set up. AKA go for it!

Only way you can clog a cat is by running leaded gasoline

Or by actual debris in your exhaust, and if you have that I'd be more worried than a clogged cat being your problem

clogging cat supposely will affect the exhaust flow inside the pipe because its like a big chamber in the pipe. and it suppose to lower the hp in the vehicle. but whats his name that used to have a s/c tune gain like 6-8hp from doing the hollowing cat and resonator delete so idk.
