Default Cut-Out with FLP's?

Anyone know what size cutout I'd need to have welded up to the FLP Y-pipe and the Corsa intermediate pipe?

I had the two welded and the guy who did it fricked it up and I had to cut it. I figure if I'm gonna pay to have it done again I might as well add a cutout

Do you recommend any of the powerized cutouts or just stick with the wingnut version?

3 Inch Cutout Should Do. Wingnuts Are Easy To Take Off But A Qtp Electric Motor Would Definately Be Nice When You Pull Up Next To A Cop!!!!

Does anyone know for sure? I ask different people, and was told, the 2.5 in dual electric cutouts clamped or welded to the FLP Offroad Pipes or the Y-Pipe. But then you're the 5th person to say 3in in the Y-pipe would be good. Is there gonna be a big differance between the 2.5 and the 3.0?

Also as far as placement, is that a good idea mating it up to the offroad pipes?

yeah... seems like it might be a 2.5 to 3" ( Y-pipe to intermediate pipe ) but I could be crazy... one side seems bigger but I have a bad memory.
