Help me out: Dual or single cutout? I want to know if I should go with dual electric cutouts before the cats on my TSP catted y-pipe or just one after the cats right before the i-pipe. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

You will have a hard time fitting the dual electric cutouts before cats. Ground clearance will be horrible.
This was my Y pipe with dual cutouts. You can see there is not much room to begin with. I could not fit my dual electrics on without having them be about an inch off the ground.

My cutouts come after the cats and I love it! I liked the sound with gutted cats better, but the smell was atrocious! Definately an attention getter. A cutout on the I-pipe is about as neat as a stright-through catback.
I say go dual or go home.

Right now, it's 2-1 favoring one e-cutout. Any others want to voice their opinion so I know whether to order 1 or 2?
What about 2 e-cutouts after the cats like what "gi8e7oi825" said? Also, I have a 3" TSP catted y-pipe, so would I go with a 3" cutout (or 3.25 or 2.75?) I don't know if it needs to be the same size as the actual tubing or smaller/bigger so it can fit in or fit over the tubing. Does that make sense? Thanks.

my ground clearance at the worst point with dual cutouts in the y:
personally I would go with the duals in the y, its a little harder to pull off but it can be done, IMO it sounds better too.
