Would you guys think it is overkill with the sound... putting 2 cutouts after the LT's like valkyn said? I personally think it'd be cool but just asking for a ticket lol

Put an adjustable Borla system on with the cutout that you can put inline with the passenger side tip. Makes for straight through or muffled...

Sorry to hijack but I had a local shop weld my cut out on Like a month ago and they welded it right before the over axle like I wanted but too close to I guess where the rear passenger seat is. So when I go over the smallest bumps the flange hits the car. It seems like the pipe needs to come back a half inch to an inch to clear this problem should I try adjusting the pipes or do you guys think the mufflex exhaust bump stop hanger would work best?

I would take it back to the exhaust shop that welded it in and have them fix it.

Under the rear passenger seat. I actually dyno tested it before and after the cutout was installed and picked up 17rwhp with a heads cam car.
