What you looking to find out? My cutout basically replaced the test pipe/cat.
Its awesome 4 seconds to open and close, DMH performance with 4 year warranty for less than $200 even with flowtech.
I love it. Plus all my car has now is rims and a FMIC to anyone that see it, not even exhaust.

where did you get it? I assume you hold down the switch to open, it's not liek flick switch up, it opens 100% flip switch down, it closes 100%?

Was pretty loud driving around with it open

The switch has to be held down for it to be working. Car won't rev out with the cutout closed, it breaks up about 4000rpms.

why does it break up? you can't rev past 4k even on your old exhaust setup until you got a cutout? Weird.. I want to figure out a switch to just flip on, then flip off, but don't want to spend a ton on a controller.

That's what I'm looking at getting, along with teh "y" pipe from summit.

Haven't had any problems with mine, other then it didn't close 100% and started to give phantom knock.. lol

But we have the toggle switch, just hit it down and it stays open, don't have to hold it

Yeah, you would just have to use a different type of switch.

Well, how would that work? I have a on/off switch, much liek a light switch, but i guess I'm lost on how it'd wire up.

It just needs power on to hold it open, so that should work fine.

hm...but it flipped "on" wouldn't keep the motor turning with power going to it. And, closing it by flipping the switch off would take power away..so how would it then close? I'm confused. I HATE wiring.
