Default Cutouts

Looking for a little more sound when I want it. Want some videos of your cutout setups. I would prefer to hear some boosted cam setups. But post your videos if you've got them

DMH, QTP or Race Ready want to hear your experience with these setups.

Cutouts are illegal in my state. You might want to check in yours before you install them. If it matters.

Their not. I have TI's on my car to keep it quiet at highway speed but I'd like some that I can open and close when I want.

I had electric cutouts on my 05 gto and they were fun but just so loud when you pass something under throttle the sound reflecting slaps you in the face! Only issue i had was cutting/welding my kooks mids to add the Y pipes...

Just trying to save you some grief and money later on. It doesn't matter where it's registered. It's where it's driven. My buddy got a nice ticket for his cutouts plus he had to take them off.

Thanks buddy. Your pics in the flare section are part of the reason I ordered mine! They just got back from paint not too long ago so I'll need to take some update pics.

I understand that like I said thanks for the concerns. If I do get pulled over I'll deal with that issue then.

I bought the DMH low-profile units directly from Dave, had them installed locally (Memphis TN) and they have been a fun addition to my AE. I have had no issue with them and love the ability to be stock, obnoxious.....or anywhere in-between.

These are my most fun mods to my ride.

I had a set about 8 years ago on a car. Worked great, but after a year of having fun the motor snapped off going down the interstate.
