Duals or cutout?

I am split between the two. The duals would dump before the axle or I would have 2 cutouts somewhere in the y-pipe.

Thanks
Jeremy

I'd go with the cut-outs because of the price savings. Plus then you won't have to worry about ripping your mufflers off over every bump

Really? I have never even come close to scraping my cut-out. Guess it all has to do with how it is positioned. But still dump mufflers hang a lot lower than a cut-out could.

Scrapping isnt something I'm really worried about or price. My friend has a LS1 TA and he has duals on that and doesnt have scapping problems and cost him less then $400 for the pipes and mufflers. He does have dumps, basically the samething I would do.

a simple cut out pipe is like $25. You'd have to go under and screw on the cap if you wanted it closed tho.

At idle....if I "rare" it....yeah, it pops...while driving....accelerating...not at all....it never has popped. It only pops if I rare it up to about 3500 RPM
