I will have a Pypes Electric Cutout and 3" Y-pipe up for sale in a few days. I had it on my truck for four days and ended up taking it off and getting a magnaflow. It worked great. Opened and closed at a push of a button. If your interested let me know. I'll let it go for pretty cheap compared to new.

Ya I ordered a 3.5" "custom" from what badlandz calls it. Still works awesome no issues so far. I have a mean sounding truck. Problem is I am so busy at work by the time I get off its dark so I cant record a video. Hopefully on one of my days off.

Awesome, I'm gonna order mine today. Just don't know if I should put it after the 3rd cat or replace the 3rd cat with it.

I am going to cut off my 3rd cat and replace it with just some piping. Then just keep it for later. Then get long tube headers when I can afford them. My exhaust cutout is currently between the 3rd cat and the Muffler. No point in having the cat I already have an illegal exhaust lol

Exactly lol I'm assuming if yours about 25% louder with the cat in place then if I put mine in place of the third cat it'll be even louder? Honestly my big worry is it not being loud enough in between the cat and muffler haha.

I like the tip dumping it down, did you use just a regular angled tip? 3.5" one right? or is the exit tube on the cutout a different size?

 

edit* my buddy Mike1220 just gutted his 3rd cat. Has a cutout too, and he said the truck's extremely loud now. Message him, I'm sure he'll tell you the details. Only difference is he has a 5.3 which means ours would be even louder.

I will have to tape pics and a video explaining how I installed it too. It would help

I bought the badlandz 3.5" custom turndown tip as part of my order so it just came all together. Ya as soon as I am able to this week its getting cut off

I have a badlandz cutout. Sound is increased but I will say that whether you have the cutout open or closed, you'll still have some gasses coming out of the main tailpipes. I only know that you don't get full sound because I pulled my muffler off the other night when gutting my catalytic converter and it was much louder. I am looking into adding another valve somewhere after my cutout so I can open and close that go force the exhaust completely out of the cutout so nothing makes it to the muffler

Just an update on my gutted 3rd cat. I noticed a few days after gutting it, that I had a new rattle and that my cutout had 0 effect on the exhaust sound. I knew the cats couldn't have that kind of effect, so I crawled back under the truck and noticed that I didn't clamp the exhaust back properly so my exhaust was full sounding without a muffler or anything. Only have the cats on the headers and then released into the world, causing the extreme sounds
