ideally they would have a flap that covers the muffler path so all went through the cutout when open, but we can't have everything. or i could patent a way to do that and make millions<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">.

you can use then on anything.

i think i am going to get those and put them right after my headers that will save me the caust of a whole exhaust. and it should give me same power as streight pipes.<edited><editID>allblack</editID><editDate>37889.7179282407</editDate></edited>

Redline, I've said it a hundred times now </P>


My friend, with a stock 305TPI &amp; automatic transmission...he installed edelbrock headers &amp; highflow y-pipe, cat &amp; muffler....he had the car dyno'd.</P>


Then he installed a cut-out, infront of his cat..he dyno'd his car again and GAINED 20 REAR WHEEL HP Also he gained 8 REAR WHEEL TORQUE. THIS was with an ALREADY HIGH FLOW EXHAUST!</P>


I can only IMAGINE the gains you will see on a dual exhaust car with cut-outs...it must truly be JAW dropping.</P>
