Cats or no cats

I just bought my pypes mid pipes with cats. Im trying to decide to either install the cats or not. But I would like to know from others what is the sound difference with and without cats?
thanks

I JUS TOOK MINE TO AN EXHAST SHOP AND HAD THEM CUT THE CATS OUT AND FLANGE THEM AND THEN BUILD ME TO SHORT SECTIONS OF STRIAGHT PIPE TO REPLACED THEM. NOW WHEN I GO THROUGH EMISSIONS I JUS TAKE OUT THE STRAIGHT PIPES AND BOLT IN THE CATS 8 BOLTS TAKE ME 15 MIN TO DO AND JUS CHANGE IT BACK WHEN IM DONE. AS FAR AS SOUND MY CAR IS REALLY QUIET WITH CATS IN I HAVE SPINTECH MUFFLERS AND U CANT HEAR THEM TILL LIKE 3000. SOUNDS MUCH BETTER WITH CATS OUT
