The Flowtech cutout is just a simple y-shaped thinkg that mounts onto the headers then to the exhaut with a second pipe that is closed up with 3-wing nuts. Just take off the wing nuts, take the plate off and you have open headers. QTP (www.quicktimeperformance.com) makes their electronic cutouts for these type of cutouts. Or you can get them and the electronic cutouts from QTP at the same time.

Flowtech also advertised having the cheapest priced headers..
maybe their cut-outs are well priced too

I bought mine from thunder racing for about $35, but I warn you, I was not impressed with the quality at all. I will have to do a lot of grinding to get it anywhere near my standards.
