You dont want them man.. I have Dual cutouts and I had to disconnect them to tune the damn car. In my opinion they are a waste of money. its cool at first done get me wrong. But it gets old.. The butterfly flap doesnt get a good seal, then you can hear your exhaust leakin from it..

why did you have to disconnect them to tune the car?

also DMH>QTP and i wouldn't bother with dual cut outs, a single one before the axle should suffice. there are many people running single DMH's with out issue.
