That system looks great and I love installation video but the price is too much for me. I think QTP cutouts + Install is cheaper. Could prob save $200?

more than 200 bucks saved, you also have to factor the noweeds install price also

That's true I assumed you would do your own noweeds install. It looks pretty simple if you can climb under your car? If you don't have access to a lift you could probably get it install for under $100 if you wire it yourself.

Yes if you have stock 2.5" pipes. You would just cut out a section, slide it on and clamp it down. Of course you have the wiring as well for the diverter valves.

They do have weld-in diverters as well. I'm sure many people are opting for the bolt on for the ease of installation. They are quite pricey though.

If you have ARH 3" LT's w/ cats and x-pipe or ARH 2.5" LT's w/ cats and x-pipe they make diverters that will bolt right behind them. They are actually cheaper than the ones you have to cut your stock pipe for. I really can't wait to get them on my car and hear the thunderous roar!

I was thinking of cut outs for the 12ss I had, and if I had got them I would have went with the no weeds. I think they are the best. They are simple to install and don't require welding. Also if you get American Racing Headers there is a no weeds kit for them as well.

Ivan is a great guy and sold me my set. Easily the best brand of cutouts you can buy (lifetime warranty). They're bolt on but some cutting to install the y-pipe is usually involved. Friend of mine did the whole installation in his shop for $80. Sorry, don't have any pics of them installed. I'll try to take some next time the car is on the lift.

This lifetime warranty is actually a good reason to pay the extra $100-$200. I know QTP had a problem with the motors burning out a while back. I am almost positive is is fixed now but I think they refused to replace them for free. Anyway a lifetime warranty would definitely be nice. (assuming they cover that kind of stuff)

I like that! Good idea. One question tho, does it stuck farther down (to the ground) than the normal spot? I am worried about clearance.
