Default How much of a change can in sound can I expect?

After installing say a 220/220 112lsa cam, and pacesetter longtubes with the ORY, no cutouts, running through a single 3" cutout?

right now its pretty loud, but it almost sounds like its not even started when its at idle warm. Its loud when its cold, but once it warms up, its sad. Will my idle be alot louder after these mods?

I'm getting the Long Tube headers before the cam for sure.

Which one makes the biggest change? I would think it would be the cam, since it opens up the engine alot more.

it will be louder if nothing else bc you will have to run your idle up around 650-700rpm with a 112 cam....

headers w/ ory made the biggest change but it suprised me by how much louder it got with the cam swap afterward.
