whats the sense of buying a cutout for the borla when all you have to do is remove the plate and you have a straight thru???

The cutout is very handy. The difference between wide open and fully closed on the borla is night and day. Just eliminates having to get under the car to change the sound. If you have the money it is worth it.

Yeah if you don't have LTs and all it isn't that loud. I ran mine open until then as well. It is just nice to have a little more control without all the extra work.

I have a borla non adjustable that came on my car when I bought it. I just added lts+ory to it a few months ago. I love it. Sounds better than the setup on my last car.
