Re: exhaust cut outs

yea, it works... its Y pipe mounted before the cat... lol, flip the switch to normal and your exhaust goes trough the catdown to the muffler and out throught the tail pipe(s) lol, flip the switch to the other way and it just dumps the exhaust out before the the cat... where to get it? i donno :S

Re: exhaust cut outs

IF I went with cutouts, they would be $70-75 for the set of 2. Then the cost of having them welded up.
The electric ones are much more expensive.

I personally would rather have a free flowing exhaust that performs as well as cutouts.

Re: exhaust cut outs

I agree, especially for that one day that it malfunctions and opens itself as im passing a cop parked on the side of the road.

Re: exhaust cut outs

the name of my club/shop is called rev extreme and we are based put of tampa fl, we are one of the many shops that help sponsor the f body gathering thats in atlanta, along with hawks 3rd gen,year one, and alot of other clubs. bmr,passport,eddlebrock,and procharger are a few of our sponsors.we get great deals on alot of top end stuff,we have 3 drag cars that are sposored under us, a drag truck and many of us race in the pro stock and some other classes. if your ever in the area u should swing by. and as for "the electric exhaust, its cool to have if your into street raceing big time, your car sounds normal when u pull up on somebody and after they agree to race, for money or whatever u hit the button and reviel that your car is a beast and watch the other guy piss himself then u smoke him. its messed up if u ask me but thats what alot of people i know do.

True, that would blow. I was passing this Dodge Ram that was jacked up and I bet had an electronic device like this but it was going straight headers and while I as passing it the thing was so loud because he thought I was probably trying to race him (in other words he was being an asshole not letting me pass him) and since I had my windows down my freaking ears were hurting, I was like "Slow peice of crap" because I couldnt go any further cause of this car that got infront of me.
