Question Question about power and deleting my cat

I have no performance mods but am considering gutting or deleting my cat. My question is what kind of low end or high end power hit/gain am I looking at? Will I need to get a tuner to compensate for the gutted/deleted cat?

you may gain a little performance, i got a little, but mine was falling apart, mostly though it will sound better

and you won't need a tuner
