Default Worth it to put cutouts on this exhaust?

I'm running a 3" x-pipe setup with 16" Dynomax bullet mufflers right now. I'm adding two 12" Dynomax bullets before the X-pipe. Since these mufflers don't hurt flow, would it be worth it to put dual cutouts before the muffers?

I would have to say yes if you love the awesome sound cutouts will provide. You have to think also that adding the cutout's would negate the purpose of you purchasing the x-pipe. An unrestricted X-pipe should in theory be better than cutouts because of the added scavenging the merging of the two pipes provides.

NO. THE DYNOMAX MUFFLERS ARNT RESTRICTIVE AT ALL. EVEN IF YOU DID IT I COULDNT SEE YOU GETTING ANY PERFORMANCE GAIN OR BEING ABLE TO HEAR A SOUND DIFFERENCE SINCE THE DYNOMAX MUFFLER ARE LOUD ALREADY
