Bought a QTP exhaust cutout... no room for it, suggestions?

alright, i bought a single 3" exhaust cutout that i was going to put after my Y pipe. but turns out, with the new torque arm, and driveshaft looft, i am far from having enough room.

as far as putting it up before the cat's i would have to buy another one, and simply put i dont care that much for it to spend another $300 on a cutout.

i love the sound of my car, i just wanted somethin to make it nice and loud. should i bother with this or just take it back?

cause obviously the closer to the front the better, so i just wasnt sure?

you're not gonna pick up any power with a cutout on a LM setup...

that's like putting cutouts on a true dual setup...

i know im not going to pick up power, but is it going to be a ton louder? like i want it so when i pull into a parking lot of a car show or something, my car is instantly the center of attention, right now people really only look if i give it a couple revs. LM2 is fairly quiet below 2500 rpm.

The spot in the i-pipe right before the rear axle dump is probably your best bet. Clearance is definitely pretty tight in the spot right after the y-pipe.
