1 Fast SS Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 I'm sure this has been a topic before, but I would like to ask the question again. I'm thinking about getting some cutouts for my set up. The question is, should I get 1 or 2 of them. I also thought I seen some manual 3" somewhere but can't find them. Do they make the 3" manual? What brand should I use? Here's some pics of my set up, and was wondering what some of you have done. If I only go with 1 of them, then I can install it just in front of the Corsa. If I go with two of them, then I'll put them where the two pipes come in line with each other, correct? Either way I do it, I should have turn downs on them right? The reason why I might go with only 1, is because of the sound. I want it loud, but not extremely loud. The guys with the cutouts, is it deep too?

12'SROCK Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 when you say manual 3" cut out you mean the ones with bolts? because all a cut out really is a flange. you should run 2 cut outs one fo each pipe and put them right before they join as one. they are loud n' deep.....

rivierakid55 Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 looking at your setup id run two right somewhere before your two pipes merge into one. looks like you have a lot of room there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 well if you rrunning two into a single exhaust i would change it to duals all the way back i have dougs e cutouts on mine and being able to open and close them at will is awesome. here are some pics but you should have more room since your 2wd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Fast SS Posted August 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 I was talking about the ones with the cable. And I would have went with the duals, but the Corsa is a single in and single out. Are most of you guys doing a turn down to get the deepness?

Yeah they really make your exhaust louder and sound more aggressive because it makes it free flowing by bypasssing the muffler. yes i would do it on any exhaust as I am going to be doing it as well soon. As for price that depends. if you get manual cut outs where you just undo flange bolts and remove the blind that covers the cut out opening not expensive at all probably $50 ea if I remember correctly maybe cheaper. BUT if you want electric as Chase runs where you can just hit a switch to open and close them then it can get up there in price in a hurry a feww hundred dollars.

firervfd37 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 so if you dont ever go to the drag...then it is a waste of money? whats the chances of it getting you pulled over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobradh77 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 so if you dont ever go to the drag...then it is a waste of money? whats the chances of it getting you pulled over? If you street race then electric are probably better so you can just open them for a race and then close them afterward without having to get under your truck. As for getting pulled over thats anyones guess. Michael "PimpSS" took is exhoust off completely for a while and didnt get pulled over for it but it was loud.

rivierakid55 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 as far as racing goes there is very little if any performance gains by having cutouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlkSSnCpt Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 ... if its just for street racing there's no real gain specially if ur not S/C'ed or Turboed. but in Chase's case his truck is a beast and probably gets i lil noticable difference when he on the track plus it sound friggin awesome.... -Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Fast SS Posted August 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 I'm sure in Chase's case, he would need all the free flowing exhaust he can get with that blown motor. I know that WODY has some on his truck, and he leaves them open all the time. It sounds kick ass too. I want to get some, but the E-cutouts are not cheap. I'll get some with the cable.

Erwin8r Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 yep they are only for a good sound So that's what those friggin' things are called!! LOL!! Mine has the manual version with the block-off plates and wing nuts... I haven't even bothered to see what they sound like so I may just have them "deleted" altogether, although the electric version looks tres-cool!
