No, they are talking exhaust cutouts. When installed they give you the option of running your exhaust opened, closed or partially closed. Reduces back pressure and when open sounds cool. Exhaust cutouts with remote controlled keyfobs are a nice feature.

I've installed cut outs in over 6 different vehicles using products from Quick Time Performance with no problems.

Those are the ones that I have seen and worked flawlessly, they were also used on one of the Gearz buildups (Rat Roadster).

Anyone use the brand race ready performance? They are more expensive but carry a lifetime warranty. I will be purchasing a set soon.

DMH cutouts are what I am running on my Z06. They are very quality pieces and the guy stands behind his work. He even makes a low profile cutout for low ground clearance cars.

You can get them through a lot of forum vendors like Vengeance racing, etc.
