exhaust electric cut out good or bad?
Thursday, May 26, 2005 5:06 AM
i was thinking yesterday if it could be a good thing to put a exhaust cut out that will bypass the exhaust flow right before the cat by a switch action that will activate the cut out by the interior when i need it to be more fast(i mean a little bit more).

i dont really know about these product could this be good or bad??

any advice are welcome .

depends on what you have done, I have an elcctronic one and with all the bolt ons ca,s and lots of nitrous (running 2.25 inch exhuast) here was a minor power gain with it open alittle bit, ful open I lost alot of pwoer. For turbo car cutout is well worth it

if you have forced induction then go for it... but if not, you need backpressure in your exhaust.

no you don't need back pressure, and don't argue here easrch for it, the topic has beat to death, backpressure is NOT what you want its just what people think they need

so if i keep my stock exhaust line on a n\a car i should put it just before the muffler for lost the restriction of a muffler and keep enough vaccum to not loose power at the engine.but will i gain something to do that or it is a waste of time?

let me rephrase. you don't want a crapton of backpressure. however, no backpressure is terrible for N/A performance. you have to have at least some backpressure in order to get low end torque and the right exhaust flow.
