No... my baby is on up the lifts at a local shop, she threw a rod :/ Once I get my cutout installed on the i pipe I'll put some pics up. I have a picture that might prove useful in the placement of a cutout on the i pipe?

Here is a pic of where a single cutout on the i-pipe would go, and a video of an open y pipe (should sound *similar to a cutout on the i pipe)...

^video doesn't do it justice whatsoever... much deeper at idle and has a lot of treble in the tone when you rev it up. Hope this helps,

There will be a noticeably different sound quality between these two setups. True duals (with X-pipe, H-pipe or no crossover at all) will sound much better than an ORY with one bullet dumped after the merge.

There are different types of "rasp"; what you get with any sort of true dual setup sounds good to me too. But the kazoo-on-crack type of raspiness that comes from having an ORY with no muffler is just not good IMO.

Yea I know... I really don't think you get to experience what an LSx motor sounds like until you hear it with true duals. Don't get me wrong, their tone with a y pipe is still badass, but man I'd love duals much more.
