Exhaust Cut-Out?
I'm thinkin about puttin in a cut-out after my cat just to have some fun with. I don't wanna put in an electric one because they're expensive and the ones with covers seem like a pain with havin to unbolt um every time you wanna uncork it. So I'm thinkin an old school cable style one from Jegs. Mr. Gasket makes one too but its only 2" Thoughts? Advice? Anyone runnin them?

Dont think they're legal in most places. It's the same concept as running just straight pipes which are also not legal in most places. But if your area cops aren't naht-zees about straight pipe'd trucks then you should get by fine with a cutout.

Haha lastrights I've seen your awesome vids. You kno how I feel haha! When I did my exhaust I had finished the headers (shorties) the new Jegs y pipe and Magnaflow hi flow spun cat. I started it up and let it run to check for leaks then took it down the road for some fun. I could not get enough of that beefy throaty hollow big block sound commin out of the 318!!! After I finished it with the super 10 and duals out the back it still sounds really good. But I thrive for that sound again. I think I took a vid of it, I gotta post it. Now if I do put it on and put it after the cat and O2s, will it be alright at e-check???
