PAGING EXHAUST CUTOUT USERS
I know alot of you guys are using exhaust cutouts and my questions are: What does it sound like? Will it be louder than my Corsa indy w/ TPIS long tubes, X-pipe and removed cats? Where are you mounting them? What brand, size, and material are you using? Not that it matters to me but is there any resonance? Is it a deep sound or loud and raspy? Would it bring out the sound of my extremely lumpy cammed 382 stroker at idle. Last one: Do you have any idle problems when using them? Thanks in advance.

I was very interested in doing this, but am afraid with the S/C that having these would vary the boost and tuning to much...going to an open header would allow better breathing,,this might lower the amount of boost I am going to be running...right??????????????

NassyVette,
Any idea how those electronice cutout openers work? I did a DIY cutout at home on my 01 a4 and i LOVED the sound when driving locally. but the minute i would go on the highway for any amount of time, the resonance made my teeth chatter, my head hurt, and my heart skip a few beats. to have that electronic cutout would be awesome. any idea how it would work on a stock exhaust with nothing modified and no cutouts? would love to have the on-demand-sound and performance of open pipes without being stuck with the noise when i dont want to. i am in no way a wrenchhead and would prob need someone to run the wires and do the install. any help would be appreciated. thanks and let the good time RUMBLE! :crazy: :eek:

Re: PAGING EXHAUST CUTOUT USERS (NassyVette)
NassyVette,
Does that $200 include the cutouts, the electric plate, and installation? What was the install time at the shop? I'm ready to do this right away! :D In your opinion, how does the electric plate work and is it dependable? Sounds like a real cool thing, especially when ricers pull up, hit the switch, and roar, v8. Thanks for all the help
