Exhaust Cutout Question???

Where do you mount exhaust cutouts, is it before the catalitic converter or between it and the muffler?

Anywhere they fit. Except that you don't mount them on V6 cars.

Although you'll get a strange and peculiar sound out of a V6 with open exhaust.........I would say put it right before the muffler on the 90degree peice of pipe about to enter it.

Re: Exhaust Cutout Question???

Cut-outs are a really common mod for gtps as far as ive seen, Check out gtp forums and most eveyryone gets a cut out and a pulley as first mods. Put it inplace of your cat, that what im gonna do, since mine are gutted and make a different sound.
