Anyone using electric cutouts?
I'm thinking of adding these over the winter but I'm not sure what to expect. I'll be putting them on my 2000 frc with a duel K&N intake setup. Aside from that the engine is stock with no headers. What, if any, gain can I expect except loss of hearing? Also where in line should they be installed?

I installed mine at just before the exhaust enters my Corsa's. I picked up a solid 2/10's in the 1/4 on a H/C A4 car. Email me for pics.

Re: Anyone using electric cutouts?
I'm very interested in these. Where do you get them and how hard are they to install and how much? I assume they are not street legal when opened but, could you get into trouble when trying to get a smog?

] :iagree: 10000% as i have them to on my 427 car and they are a FREAKIN RIOT, especially since you can adjust the sound by just cracking them open partial way or all the way depending what mood your in, etc.
However, on a stock C5 don't expect any power gains and on H/C or Stroker set up the most guys usually pick up, if anything, is 10 rwhp and or torque. However, this is one of the funnest MODS one can DO!!!!!!! :smash: :chevy :cheers: :flag
