Advice on Future Setup
Okay, since I have a lot of time to think about ****, I've put together a full exhaust system that I'd like to have purchased and installed by the end of this year. This is what I came up with. This system is for right now a basically stock car, but in the future I have much higher goals, as in the 600ish range. Please let me know if something won't work or if there's a better option.
TSP 1 7/8 Headers
Mufflex ORY w/ Flowmaster 4" Merge
2 Electronic cutouts welded on merge (on opposite sides to emulate X-pipe congifuration)
keep current SLP Loudmouth catback (replace muffler with Dynomax bullet)
Any thoughts?

Well, I'm not 100% sure if I can pull it off, since i'm not sure if I have room underneath. Basically you have the flowmaster 4" merge, and instead of welding a single cutout before the muffler, have two on the merge. I'll throw something together for you to look at.

P.S. This is what I had in mind (not to scale)

well, your not going to "lose" power, it depends on your goals. you will pick up top end with wide open headers (or cutouts directly after the headers) but you will lose a little bit of low end, however, with cutouts, its on demand. i honestly cant see any significant gain by putting the cutout there, i can only see hacking up a perfectly good, expensive merge and having clearence issues.
just my opinion, i would put them in the best location for clearence and fit in the ORY before the merge, after the collectors. preferably about 16-24 inches back from the o2's.
on my setup, i will have the cutouts right after the headers, before the x pipe. (i have TD's with flowmaster delta force race mufflers.)
