Default cut outs?

Hey I was wondering if there was any way to run cut outs on a 98 camaro z28 with the stock headers, with cats. Like if there was somebody that could put them in front of the cats. I know you can run a cut out right after the stock y pipe, but that doesn't really help me out. It's definetly just there for noise then or atleast thats what I've been told, is it might give me one maybe two hp to do it in front of the flowmaster cat back.

Thanks for any help you can give.

So you put a single after the y and it helped out alot. Sounds easier to me would you suggest that I do weld in or just slip on with clamps?

I want cutouts, but I'd need 2. Unless it was somehow welded into the crossover in the h pipe.

put it in the intermediate pipe, after the Y..

you will only really see gains if you leave the cut out open all the time, the computer needs to learn it.

if u leave it uncapped all the time, its is by far one of the best bang for the buck mods u can get!
