Only change H-pipe?

Only change H-pipe?
If I only swap the factory H-pipe with an off-road version (no cats) will I see any improvement in performance and/or sound?
It seemed to me, that when I owned my old 5.0, that people noticed when I removed/replaced the H-pipe to get pass emissions testing in the area. Is that same thing true of the 4.6 with factory mufflers? I'm sure I will break down and get 40's or something silly loud down the road, but will it sound better just changing the H-pipe out?
Thanks!

when i first got the car, the first thing i did was swap out for an mrt catted h. that was the only mod i had made, and the sound improvement was awesome. it sounded much more muscle car like - also felt a tad quicker, but didnt test that at all.

Yeah, I think I might be able to leave the current tailpipes and just change the hpipe + mufflers. I always use the flowmaster 40's in my cars, whenever I do I get complimented and who doesn't like that? However, every car I own or have owned with 40's ends up getting pushed out of the garage before I start it when I leave early with the master bedroom right above it. H well, it is worth it.
