I Had a pair of QTP cutouts(bought from a forum member) welded in by a local muffler shop that was highly recomended around town. they charged me $35 per side to weld them in and it took about an hour total. I later wired in the switch. although its a Mig weld who really cares it was rather painless and you wont see them unless you lay on the ground...

They are positioned in a way where the lowest point in my exhaust is still the high flow cats from my long tubes.

will post pictures of them in the next reply(they are on my phone)

All in all! I saw do it! My exhaust is almost stock quiet when I want it to be and it takes less than 5 seconds to open up the electric cutouts all the way. and its reallly F*ckin loud too hahahaha

Also I ran the wires up through the shifter area.
Lowered the shifter from the inside of the car. And zip tied with wires back from the exhaust and driveshaft high and tight

Good luck with it all

Aw, thanks sir! Appreciate you comin in for firsthand help!

Time is definitely priceless! Quality is another huge advantage.
