Default Think I should put a cutout on the car?

My current setup is TTS Longtubes into 2.5in Y pipe with high flow cats into 3in I pipe back into 2.5in rumber out the back. Would it be worth it to put a cutout in the I pipe since its going back and forth size to size. You can see my #s in my sig.

You already have the rumbler, I wouldn't bother. It might be worth 1-2 rwhp. I've seen dynos of guys with a magnaflow only gaining a couple hp through a cutout, and the rumbler is less restrictive than the magnaflow. Cutout's are cheap though.
