I have always wanted my car loud, but being a (summer) DD, I wasnt sure If I REALLY wanted a loud exhaust. So what about leaving the factory quiet exhaust on the car, and getting an electric cut out? My cat is shot its rattling bad so I was going to get a car sound put on when I do the cut out, would a car sound make the cut out sound better or worse? Or should I just have a regular cat put on? How bad would a cut out sound on a v6? Kinda like a TSP system or no? Who makes a good electric cut out? Ive herd of DHsomething and Quicktime, who's better? Sorry for all the questions, just really curious. Also would pacesetters make it sound any better? And whats the typical install cost for headers?

When I had a 3.8 firebird the cat-back fell off at a stop light, yea long story, But it sounded like *** at high RPM's with the exhaust off. It would sound the same with a cut out on it. It didnt sound too bad up till like 3500 rpms but after that it sounded horrible.

My oppinion, unless you have a lot of internal compression increasing mods, dont put a cutout on a v6. I believe with enough motor work, it would sound decent, but after that.. no.

And the cat is after the cutout, so the carsound wouldnt change the cutout's sound.

From what Ive read most people are putting the cutout AFTER the cat, just before it goes over the axel. Would that make any difference?
