It will get noticeably louder, and yes you will get codes. Where are you located? Any reputable tuner in your area can turn the codes off for you, although I recommend you get the car tuned.

Just had headers installed with high flow cats. My tuner turned off the rear O2 Sensors and no codes.

Borla copied Bullets with the ATAK to get both more flow/power and a louder, tuned note by eliminating mufflers altogether and using a resonator to tune the exhaust note. I'm surprised you think they aren't loud enough. I got the Bullets for the lowest restriction possible and the performance sound. I would think the ATAK would be about the same. To many, Bullets are too loud. Not me. You must be even more hardcore!! :>
