Went to a car show and thought it's too quiet for car events and want occasional more noise , ordered from us two badlanz cut outs for about 200 £ to the door , my local exhaust bloke will fit them for me and make up the t piece for them , and now start saving for the cam

I had one on my old ute and it was really good , the noise was great , you do loose a bit of grunt with them open plus mpg seems to suffer , main lesson I learnt was try and put it some where not to reduce ground clearance , I would be surprised if you have no where to fit them , I do accept exhaust systems can be different shapes , the cut outs I got were via eBay , there's a pair of them and wiring , for about 200£ all inclusive , there's a place in Stalbans who will custom fit them I'm expecting around 150£ or so , I have space to fit them before the back boxes

Well cut outs came from USA , 156 £ to my door , welding done for 200 , all sorted and on the car now, sounds a lot more v8 now , same idle noise as an uprated cam

Remove mid silencers first definitely sounds better , my local place charged I think 120 to replace both with straight pipe

Any mod that gives more or a bit more noise are well worth it , you often only appreciate it when it's done and are thinking that sounds good , I did simple relatively cheap mods as above and the noise is so much better , no motorway drone and noise when I want it , cut outs are a good way to do things , all told cost me 356 £ fitted , just deleting mid silencers plus sportier back boxes are well worth it and not that much , most exhaust places can put together a decent back box for around 100 to 150 a side depending on needs
