when i get longtubes and catted y pipe should i get cutouts also?

ok here is my exhaust right now, i have the gmmg, im getting jet hot longtubes with catted y pipe, now should i get 2 cutouts and have them put on before the cats for when i go to the track? or where does the cutouts go? do i need 2? would i gain anything over the gmmg and the catted y pipe with longtubes? thanks

Since you're going with a catted y-pipe. I would suggest getting one cutout and having it welded into the i-pipe.

I went with an ORY and I only had enough room really for the dual cutouts.

yeah i highly doubt you'll have room for the cutouts and the cats.

if you get 3" highflow cats you should not lose much to them.. i would say it's probably 2-3hp....not really worth the hassle.

i also think you'll lose alot more ground clearance with the cutouts and the cats.

I have generally the same setup, but i have one cutout in the i pipe and its more than loud. If you did put 2 on the y-pipe right after the headers, it will be unbearibly loud inside and out of the car.

plus there is that great back pressure loss/gain debate from running 2 cut outs.

IMO run one

whatevery you do, don't put it after the cats. unless you have no cat. put it before, even if you have to put to. sounds better and I've heard of better gains on low end.

i have jet hot LT's and have TWO cutouts with a custom y pipe, no loss of low end here :)

jesse

I have a cutout right after each jethot longtube header, then heads into true 3" duals.

However, I am H/C with plenty of juice.

You might not need so much EXHAUST. :cool:
