Obviously its not gonna sound like a v8, but I do not think it would sound bad either. Envy (the COTW) has them on her v6. Gonna work on contacting her and ill let u know too darkness

Not a problem if you open the cut-out once you are already going, but may disappoint you from a start. There is plenty of room for them though, and you can either run the wiring up through the center console, or forward and through the firewall.

ive heard a few on youtube and i loved the sound of my old vq30dek (3.9L v6).
and the torque thing is really just a myth, ive yet to see a car make less hp/tq across the powerband with cut outs vs stock set up.
regardless this is more of a preemptive mod as i plan on running nitrous later down the road. anyone who knows what their talking about with nitrous knows running an open exhaust sees NICE gains vs a piped system.
but thanks for the location for the wiring. is it easy to run it up the center console?
is there a hole in the firewall?
