Default GMMG w/ or w/o cutout???

Just trying to decide what I want my exhaust to be. I love the GMMG, but if I got that is there any reason to put an electric cutout on too? Since its probly the most free flowing I figured I wouldn't gain any more HP, but maybe some sound. Also, is GMMG too loud or annoying inside the car? Thanks guys!

lol
GMMG is loud enough without the cutout
and I don't think you'd gain anything powerwise from a cutout either

It'd pass on the cutout. They are VERY loud. In addition i dont think you'd gain hardly any power with one.

I have the GMMG with a cut out & I like it so far. But I use the cut out for the track. It is also nice to pull up next to someone at a light & open it, you should see there face. But it kinda ruens the I pipe. If you just drive it on the street I would'nt do it. It's just one more thing to go wrong!IMO.

i have dual cutouts right after my headers and it is LOUD! I'm not sure what it would be like in the I pipe and i don't know if you have long tubes or not but last time i opened them up at my local car club there was a crowd of about 100 people who flocked around my car with their jaws dropped. definitely a crowd pleaser and good for scaring pedestrians and bike riders. i'd say do it

I have the GMMG on my car with a cutout. On the dyno I only gained 5 rwhp. Not really worth it. If I was doing it over I would pass. But at the time everyone seemed to think the GMMG was restrictive because of the bends in it.
