how much to install??? i have my exhaust cutout finally and am gonna get it welded at the I-pipe where the knotch is under the passenger side, and i am wondering how much do u think it would cost to have an exhaust shop do this?? i dont want it to be over 200 i was thinking more along the lines of 50-100 dollar range.
A muffler shop made me a cutout and installed it for $60. It should be less just to weld yours on. They probably charge close to $100 an hour, and it should take them 10 or 15 minutes.
I have had mine at both locations and prefer it just before the muffler. There won't be a difference in power between the two locations, and the zed style has less drone and is easier to get to.

Yeah, it does. If you put in in the I-pipe it will sound deeper because the sound will bounce back off the pavement more. The downfall is that you will get a lot more interior drone and heat under your floor board. My latest and favorite setup by far, has the cutout just before the muffler and a plate over the cutout with a 1 1/4" hole. I had a muffler shop make a plate to bolt to my cutout with 1 1/4" hole in it. It makes my magnaflow exhaust sound much more throaty/aggressive, but isn't obnoxiously loud and doesn't have the drone of an open 3" cutout.
Probably not. If you want to put it under the car, use the space that looks like it was made for a cutout. It's just before the I-pipe goes up over the axle. Angle the cutout at about a 45 degree angle between the side of the car and the ground.
