Probably not enough for you to notice. You would notice more of a power loss from your rear 02s not reading properly and throwing the computer off and an ses(unless you have the rear 02s taken care of, either by tune or with simulators, but hardly any loss due to backpressure itself.
I run my open cutouts a good bit and I don't have cats. I run the same times at the track both open and closed, maybe a tenth or so faster with them open
