Just got a cutout! Had it installed at the muffler input - I didn't like the droning noise it made on my other car when it was under the seat. Unfortunately, it's raining so I cant get a test run in, but it sounds fierce! <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

Brian, are you aware of Keith's updates to it? He has a second version out that is upgraded to address the problems with the first design... I haven't seen either one personally, however.

Re: Just got a cutout! Am I the only person that thinks cutouts don't sound good at all, I think they make the car sound like a truck with an exhaust leak, I personally like the sound of my Borla better. I did get some HP increase out of mine, I just can't stand the sound.

It's all opinions...I personally despise Borla...but that's just me...don't like the tips or the sound or the $600 pricetag...
Isn't wide open Borla basically a cutout with a little different sound? <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">

No, you're not...I just happen to love mine. Yes, sometimes I think that it sounds like a truck, but I'm getting my whole exhaust system changed anyway. It's cheap horsepower so I really can't complain about it. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

alright; I've got the cheap mods - now I need a staged dry nitrous oxide system with an RPM window. Any suggestions? <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0"> <img src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" border="0" alt="[devil]" /> <img src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" border="0" alt="[guns]" />
