On an N/A car, damn near nothing. Do you got a Ypipe, and a Catback? If not, you wont get anything. If you did it will add a few ponies like maybe 2-3 tops on top end. It will make it louder on only aftermarket systems. On a stock system, nothing, cause the muffler cuts 90% of the noise.

If you going for louder and faster, you got two options, get a bypass valve, or do it right and get an entire new exhaust system. Beginning from the Ypipe.
