Catless or not?

I currently have a K&N filter with the air box mod, SLP shorty headers, and a SLP cat back exhaust. I still have my stock downpipe and cat. Will i gain more performance by taking it off? Some people say yes, some people say not really. I also heard i could lose a little boost because theres no back pressure.
