Default Cutout with LM1?? Where should it go??

Eveyone says to dump it before the axle, but the resonator goes right there? Has anyone running a LM1 put a cutout somewhere? an it go before the res under the body? I have FLowtech Lt's and was thinking maybe right after the Y-pipe? Let me know. Dont know where I'm going.

yhea, i agree with ls1Navy. Why would u put a cutout on a straight open piped LM1? Youl gain minimal extra horses, and no matter what itll be loud as fucc.

Don't waste the time with the cut-out, you have the LM1 that f*cker is loud enough as is. If anything your going to have the same sound, but when the cut out is open your going to have more interior vibration.
