Remember though, the cutout can be closed. The rumbler/loudmouth is obnoxious all the time. Every new LS1 guy I meet drives around with the cutout open for about 2 months. Then they cap it and only open it on sat or sun. The Rumbler will always be loud. Theres no way to quiet it. Also, the cost of the cut out is about $35 compared to the Rumbler.

well obviously if someone is interested in LM/Rumbler then they want loud exhaust . if not they look into something like hooker or magnaflow. manual cuts while cheap are a pain, i'd at least step up to a qtp electric cutout.
