Exhaust cut outs

Is anyone using these?

In what sense? To maintain lower dB for track duty or to manage dB as a daily driver?

Haven't seen anyone mention these figuring that most folks who want to manage exhaust noise go with a system that includes valves (Meisterschaft) or maintains the stock vacuum system (Akra or Eisenmann).

I think my plan is to get downpipes and install cut outs right after with the stock exhaust in place so if I wanna get Dave crazy with the sound I just open the cut outs

Down pipes in combination with the stock exhaust won't be loud.

Dave has no mufflers or resonators at all, which is why his car is full retard

Will those work for cutouts? I'd assume that you'd need to put in a short section of new piping, in front of the resonators, where you can put valves to bypass the rest of the exhaust. The only problem I see with that is where you put the cutouts, so you don't burn up anything. There are some drains for the ac condenser right down there, don't want to melt them. I would think doable though!

There is a Lexus IS F rolling around here in SoCal with that type of setup. It is the full retard version of full retard. Nobody believed it was coming from the Lexus. Crazy loud. Honestly, makes Dave's car seem tame.

Now THAT'S saying something

OP, I misunderstood the setup. My apologies. That obviously will be loud, and nice that it is switchable.

I've seen/heard that Lexus IS F at one of the Targa Trophy events earlier this year. Yes it is LOUD , but I don't think it's any louder than mine. It's all subjective really.

It's a nice thing for cars with forced induction.
Stock exhaust with catless dp's will be slightly louder and you will be able to hear the turbos spool. When I want to go nuts I just hit the switch and open the cutouts, which should be somewhere around here....

I guess the only question left is which catless downpipe to go with

No room for them where it would make sense to install them. Ended up getting an exhaust.

Too bad. I had purposefully revived the thread in the hope that you had been successful.

I had them on before the resonators and mufflers, the sound was killing me cause it was in the middle and it didn't sound as good, I went back to my turner exhaust and deleted my resonators and I haven't been more happier with the way my car sounds
