Default stock exhaust w/ cutout?

question...

Is it worth the money to buy an electric cutout for my stock system? I do plan on installing headers and full piping later on down the line, but for now I'm looking for the best bang for your buck mods. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance.

if you can get it in right after the cat than i say it could help a little but it will be severely limited by the flow capabilities of your stock exhaust manifold, i would say just wait. A much beter performance mod is practicing your shifting, and launching. Nailling some sick 60 ft times and reaction times will help you through all stages of your car.

Got any pics of your set up by any chance? i.e. placement of cutout and wiring.

Cut outs are about the best mod you can do from the get go.
