The Streetfire crew ran across this exhaust system cutout gizmo from Bayshore New York's own Kooks Custom Headers at the 2006 PRI show. While an exhaust cutout is certainly not a new idea, this one is using technology reverse-engineered in part from Corvette Z06 innards. The exhaust cutout works either with slight touch of hand from within the vehicle, or by direct signal input from the throttle position sensor. Everyday driving results in quiet stealth mode. Lead foot action? Hey-yo! Wide open throttle triggered exhaust uncorking is amusement we can all use. The rest of the video unfolds into work safe header and exhaust system ****. – Mike Bumbeck

I have often thought of doing the same thing with a cheap nitrous rpm window switch just hooked to a cut out. Brad

Its is cool, but I'm sure Kooks will put a "pimp" price on it too.

I bet it is rediculous epensive with that switch. The cutout itself is not much different that what is already out there.

Oh, BTW, the QTP cutout has had the WOT thing available as an option for over a year now.

I dont know about the "heat sensitive" switch. I'm pretty sure touch pads don't operate by heat, they operate by transmitting a magnetic field that when it is interrupted it triggers the switch. Sort of like a traffic light sensor in the highway. Maybe this has no relevance but I just like pointing out to people that most salesman are full of sh*t and don't know everything like most people think.

Kind of like how he made a comment about about the LS1 in a 97 Camaro.
