RE: cut-outs

If you are reffering to an N/A modular. 99% of the time, yes. Only exceptions are very crazy N/A race cars. With your mods it will slow you down.

RE: cut-outs

Unless someone can show definitive proof that its slowing you down I definatly don't buy it. Your not going to see any losses with a cutout, even if you probably won't see any gains with it either.

backpressure wise its not going to be much difference between the cutouts and say a magnaflow straight thru muffler dumped. The only way I can see a power loss is if you are running it (the cutout) before the midpipe... in which case your loosing the scavanging effect.
