Re: Using an e-cutout as an exhaust tuner (satan_srv)
I've seen this on a Camaro 
. Let us know how it turns out.
Just the cutout and a dump tube?
Or actually directly in an exhaust pipe to tune exhaust?

Re: Using an e-cutout as an exhaust tuner (siblue-sol)
[QUOTE]i always wondered it those things leaked. does any one know how good they keep the exhaust from leaking when fully closed?
Mine leaked a little....but that's why with my setup it will never be fully closed.
So you think a 1 second time to open is sufficient? I mean 1 second at say 4500 rpms...should be fine no matter what?

Okay I took some pictures to help describe:
Cutout:
Old setup with the cutout (BLING BLING) don't mind the cigarette butts haha:
So basically the cutout handles the overflow and diverts the gases...
Anyways with the new exhaust and straight pipe it would work like this:
New Setup
Sorry it's dark but you can see the Downpipe, Test Pipe, Cutout, and exhaust resonator.
Want to run a test pipe without throwing an OBDII code? Weld the bung up a couple inches like this hehe. NO CODES!
Make sense now? So I get a fast cutout motor that will hit 90 degrees rotation in 1 second, and cut the butterfly plate to maintain flow. RPM trigger switch and 1 second timer switch. We like?
BTW if anyone wants to buy my old DC header and cutout setup pictured above. I am selling the whole thing with the cutout. :bigthumb:
