Here's my write up. You put them in the same spot on a C5 or C6.

You can also search the C5 archives for cutouts, SpeedyZ has a set as do a few other users.

Send Ricky Bobby a PM. He has a slick set on his GTO. They work with a key fob to open and close remotely. Here is his info.

I have me Race Ready Performance electric exhaust cutouts, y pipes, etc right here ready to go on but my question is where did you get your power from? And is there an exisiting grommeted hole that I can use or did you drill to bring the switch inside the cabin?

How long can you run with them open? I've heard while open, without back pressure and running lean, you can burn up exhaust valves very quickly? What do you know about this? Is it a worry? I have a set of DMH cutouts on mine and I love the sound. I want to run with them open all the time.

A real concern is melting your rear spring. You must have proper turndowns to blow the exhaust on the ground instead of the spring. Some folks over in the C5 section have melted their rear springs running them open on track days. Get under your car- you see black marks where the exhaust hits so make sure it's not hitting where it shouldn't.
