I was just toying around with the idea of an electronic exhaust cutout.. you know, at the flip of a switch being able to run open exhaust? All the benefits of a stock exhaust as well.

Opinions?

 

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm..........looks interesting. I remember about this not too long ago in here.

 

just remove the cat.. it does not take that long.

 

BUt what about when you want the nice quiet tone of a stock exhaust ??

 

bolt the cat back up.

 

Get it, then you can have Qtec AND Vtec!

I know Ken (Black R) had something like this a while back. Not sure if it was electronic or mechanical, though. Probably the latter.

 

i saw one of those on DA in H-T, pretty cool. but i will not rock them

Kenny's too ghetto to have anything electronic. It was mechanical and it was a pain. It leaked too.

 

I have a cutout on my GSR, ITR swap. It works well just put heat wrap on the wire or make it so it's nowhere near the opening. I've melted my wire so many times I can't even count. Overall I like my cutout though.

 

Do they make 5" I'd get it for the Dually!

 

I bought a cheaper (no electric switch) exhaust cutout for my R, and it should be on by spring. I figure I'll just use it at the track to hopefully get better spool-up time and a little extra power.

 

For the DIY guys....Apparently it has been done using a mustang throttle body or something large of that nature.

Obviously all the sensors will have to be removed and any other misc. bits/pieces that are not metal...unless you like having a potential fire under your car

 

if you have intensive mods with a standalone, will you need 2 different maps for the cutout and without the cutout?

I can see how it would relate to a turbocharged motor, but NA also?

Or is this a totally dumb question?

 

Yes its been done. I did it like 2-3 years ago.
Works well when you want to run open heder

 

I went through two of those and they leaked terribly.

 

thats what i heard 2.

 

can't say im suprised any.

 

hmmm..that video wanna make me have one..lol where does it leak? where butterfly is?? looks pretty well made. rofl

 

any one see any gains from N/a or SC?

 

A video of a guy with the cutout can be seen here

Um why? I'm stunned at the **** people sell.

 

Because with less back pressure, people have the ability to make more power.

It is also a LOT easier to attain the above statement without having to jack up the car and use tools.
