Default cut-out placement?

I have pacesetter LTs, into an x-pipe w/dual bullets dumped before the axle. I have 2 cutouts and Im asking if I should put them right after the headers/before the xpipe, or after xpipe/before the bullets? Any advice would help, thanks Tim

He doesn't have the traditional catback.

nimr0d - if you already have true duals that dump in front of the axle, I highly doubt the cutouts will be worth the trouble. The only place I'd think to put them is right after the collectors. But, the true duals should flow pleanty as they sit now.

Yea, Im just doing it for the sound. The bullets actually did a damn good job at supressing the sound, alot better than I thought anyways.
