I've seen them installed instead of mufflers rather than in addition to them, so your setup would be rather odd. What I can tell you for sure is that it's gonna be louder than having it catted, but later on it's gonna sound exactly as if you're running straight pipes (or offroad pipe in your case) cus the insides of glasspacks burn out with time and so they get gradually louder until they sound like straight pipes. Glasspacks are usually a cheap alternative to performance mufflers so if you're gonna get something like flowmasters I don't really see the point of them

I agree with arto...it wouldnt make any sense to put glasspacks and flows on. Plus glasspacks sound like on our V6's. If your state doesnt have emissions checks then go ahead and remove the cats but dont replace them with anything, just go straight back to the flows.

Yes, it will make it louder. If you want a loud, deep sound though put on LT's and you wont regret it.

Whether or not they work depends largely on the proper installation, you're buying them new not used. Unless you have the rare case of a defective product which is rare and could happen to any provider regardless of its reputation. In that case they usually exchange that part for another one, no questions asked if they're good. Looking up Moss Muscle, there's some pretty good feedback from customers. Check this:
