One would probably be good. Just put it under the rear passenger seat.

I agree w/ LS69TA. No need for two if the ypipe is not a crankled mess... help keep a little back pressure too w/ it further back.

I say one. I know a guy with a 450+ rwhp cat that just lost about 5hp and 5 tq opening his cutouts on his duals. Really dont need dual cutouts on 3" duals but it was interesting to see it loose power.

Yea, but it's commonly referred to as a cutout. Flowtech cutouts are what most people run, unless you buy them as a pair (the electric cutout assy. and the reg. cutout to mount it to).

Street Pro is also a good cutout. Well made. Qtec would be my next pick.

I'd just run a single cutout if I was you. If you had a big motor and true duals, I could probably see the use for dual cutouts. A single 3" should be fine.
