Default Just installed a cut out.....

I was debating on installing a cut out since I have headers with no cats. Well I decided to give it a try even though I thought the car would sound abnoxious. The only thing I can say is"WOW". I never thought the cut out would make the car sound so bad ***. I only plan on unleashing the sound at the track. Get one!!!!

I love mine. I keep my **** quiet in the street until a mustang pulls up. Then I open it and blast it! I had a ricer pull up on me in an integra yesterday w/ his window down on my passenger side. I opened the cutout and gassed it. I looked over and he winced and rolled his window up! hahahahhahahhahhaha!

Yeah, I like my QTEC. It's one of the better things I've put on the car. The stealth factor is pretty important in my area.
