Default Just installed the cutout!

The car sounds awesome. It isn't even that loud. The cutout is in the I-pipe in the perfect section that looks like it was made for a cutout.

The sound is so cool and deep I don't think the block off plate will be ever put back on.

I will get a sound clip later on today or tomorrow.

Keep track of the plate, you'll need it if you decide to take a long trip, CA inspection, etc. People misplace them all the time. Enjoy it, didn't think mine was loud at first but now keep it closed most of the time.

It really isn't loud at all compared to some of my other friends cars with cutouts.
My friend with a 4cyl tacoma single cab (hilariously slow) has a cutout. That thing is loud as hell. Rattles your fuggin brain. That truck is fun to mess around in. We get the weirdest looks from people lol.

Really it is not that loud. I just like how it sounds. You could call it more "beefy".

nice i love the cutouts on mine... however I dunno about quiet lol It's loud enough to be heard revving it over a mile away, and I punched it on an on-ramp once with the t-tops off and the windows down and my fiance's ear quite literally started bleeding lol. (Nothin she's not used to being a fan of metal concerts)
