exhaust cut-out Is an exhaust cut-out a smart alternative to a new exhust system? I'm sure there is a difference between the two, but would the cut-out sound the same or even have similar hp gains? <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />
Re: exhaust cut-out I installed a cutout on my stock 2002 Z28 exhaust system. I picked up some power. I had it closed for street driving and opened it up for the track. Recently I used a few washers to crack it open a little while street driving. Kind of loud still but not obscene loud when I get on it.

Using the washers is a great cheap way to adjust volume. You WILL TURN HEADS. All for?? $50-60

Re: exhaust cut-out Hey guys who is better QTEC or McCord???
I like QTEC more because he is in NJ, he is a forum supporter, and I would bring it to him to install....
But what is most important to me is which is the better system

Re: exhaust cut-out I love my cutout I picked up good gains and it turns heads. IMO borla sounds better but not 600$$$$ better. Got my cutout for 30 bucks from thunderracing. I leave it open all the time doesnt bother me but its personal prefrence.
