what are the other mods to the exhaust ? if its stock i dont see a real point. itll probably sound like an old dumptruck and you wont gain much powerwise. headers, high flow cats, and a catback first.

glad you ask.
I currently have magnaflow catback system, magnaflow high flow cat, and pacesetter mid headers.
heres a link with open headers.

ahh ok then at least you have something other then stock. A cutout should be placed about 2 feet back from the Y pipe. i forgot where i saw that comparison but thats roughly where i placed mine. Mine is at the end of the I pipe befor it turns up over the axle. The cat will still rob abit of power. but with a cutout at the right spot it should help gain some power instead of going through the muffler
