Default Cut-Out

For best quarter mile times, should I put my cut-out behind my muffler. Thanks.

I would say right after the Y-pipe, thats where I am going to put mine, even though I've seen a lot of people put it right after the pipe goes over the rear axle... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

i picked up 11hp at the wheels with mine after the y-pipe. the whole point of having one is less restriction, so if you put it at the muffler, it still has to go over the axle thru that turn.

I have mine before the muffler, but if you can put it before the cats, that would be even better. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
