Default Cut-out is in!!!!

Wow - is it loud! My wife had to drive only 2 mi and she is pissed. This must be the best $60 for the bang. Sounds ok at idle, but at WOT, it sounds good. It might be too loud for full-time, so I might have to do the electric controller, but for now . But it is a nice quick fix until I can do headers and TDs.

yea, once i pay my bill for my new head unit, a cutout will be the next expense. i'm with you. it's not the best sound quality but sometimes, having an SLP dual/dual and being 20 years old, you just want attention

Cutouts are sweet! With the 4.10s cruising on the highway at 70+ emits a clean, deep, tone. WOT is simply wicked! Part throttle stabs can be a bit crude and undesirable, but giving it steady progressive throttle during acceleration is oh so satisfying

I wanted to make my car louder so i bought a cutout until i can afford LT's and i love it. At WOT the car sounds bad ***. Best mod so far! Especially for the price!!!!
