Default Turndown on a cutout

I have a cutout under the rear seat and now that i have LT and ORY the vibration is pretty bad. Wondering if any one has put a turndown on there cutout and how much did the vibration go away.

I had a cutout for awhile with stock manifolds and cats.... Made a turndown for it and probably lost 75% of the vibration.

I had a turndown on my old electric cutout setup. Just make sure you angle the turndown toward the outside of the car and not straight down.....it'll eliminate some of the drone @ 1800-2000 rpm. I didn't notice a big difference in eliminating vibrations, but it helped a lil bit.

My problem is when im stopped in OD the dash, pedals and mirror shake if i put it in N then it goes away and i just want to try and get rid of that. I love the sound of it though and its was pretty funny setting a car alarm off and i was not even trying too.

That little bit of advice definitely makes a difference.
