Yes, a ton of people do this. It's awesome, your car will be loud and sound great (ignore all the soon-coming comments about it sounding like trash, as it WON'T).</P>


If you ran your car with the cut-outs shut for a baseline ET, then ran with your cut-outs you can expect nearly .5 of your ET. </P>

im sure they will sound great. however, if u do get them, be sure to open them VERY often, the carbon builds up and verily easily makes the cutout get stuck, so if you dont open those electric ones often enough your gunna pay for something that wont work.

LOL, NO. ANY RUMORS YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT CUT-OUTS IS BULLS-HIT.</P>


</P>


And yes, if your cut-outs are CAPPED, they will pass inspection. They are not ILLEGAL to have on a car, in ANY state. They are illegal to have OPENED in most states. </P>
