It'll be crazy loud though. People will run for cover when you're coming down the street.

I plan on running the same setup this Feb. I am running dual cutouts, one right after each header. It will sound wicked with the plates wide open.

It will be crazy loud without the cutouts too though... But if you want to run them, anywhere between the header collector and mufflers will work. Try to get them as close to the headers as you can though, the less pipe in front of the cutout the better.

i ran my headers open for like 1 hour, it was too much, you will most likely get tired of that real quick, unless your a mad man
