There was a thread on this a few months ago with sound clips and install ideas with photo's as well. Cant for the life of me remember the company that sells them. Had their site saved but deleted it since had a corsa system fitted with no cats. Get on the gas with this, there's not much need for cutouts. Nice n' quiet at cruise also.

Took a while for my brain to engage. The McCord power plate 2 is what youre looking for. www.mccordcg.com/mpp/mpp.htm. All info you need is there including lifespan etc. The cutouts themselves are sold by summit racing (SUM-G4822) or Jegs Hi Performance. Worth looking for thew thread though. As I remember it had far better sound clips than the McCord site. Good Luck.
Regards

You hit the nail on the head. I saw both and believe me the one on McCords web sight did not hold a candle.

Mine and others installed the dual cutouts after the center muffler. I have no pictures.

I think you will find that you will have to remove the tire carrier and possibly the hanger hardware to get the cutouts to fit. When you place them make sure they will not scrape! Those cutouts are expensive. I did not want everything exposed so I cut my tire carrier a bit and made some custom hanger hardware for it to hid it all.

If you have the cutouts point directly on the fiberglass tire carrier it will start to melt or burn it up. You will want some turn downs or run some additional pipe to keep it out from underneath the car
