very nice! Ah and yes I remember watching that video! His car is wicked loud

I sure did, thank you!

But as far as this goes, it's not something you would drive around with open all the time. Well probably not. Once you realize how loud they are it will probably be something you use for car shows or showing off. It would drive you and others mad to have them open all the time. So the catback of your choice will still be used more often than not, I'm assuming

The no weeds are also a diverter instead of a cutout so instead of creating a large exhaust leak they close off the rest of the exhaust and open the exhaust up completely.

Your install looks immaculate!!!! My SS is very low and your setup looks more tucked up than the one on the NoWeeds website.

Did you modify your set up???

Not to mention the car goes in the shop for heads/cam on July 11th! I enjoy loud cars so I think keeping them closed a lot of the time would be hard! Obviously wouldn't have them open through my neighbourhood at night.

I can't wait! It's killing me. I don't think I'd have enough time to order to cutouts and have them arrive before I send the car in because it says allow 3 weeks for production time. Only problem is they have an option for the stock exhaust and one for American racing exhaust. I'm assuming the American racing exhaust one would work with an aftermarket exhaust

I actually pulled that picture off of google as I don't have any pictures of mine from under the car. My car is low too and they hang down a bit.

Hmmm. Probably talking about 2.5in for stock exhaust and 3in for "american racing" or aftermarket haha.

I'm going to take that picture with me to the exhaust shop to copy it! Great picture......very clean!

Mine are tucked up just right for me expert welding job too. I'm running kooks 1 7/8 headers w/HFC. I lowered my car 1" before putting them on. After driving it a while I decided to put stock springs back in. Just my choice I didn't want to take a chance of hitting a bump and having them damaged.
My switch is located on the console right next to the traction control. I can control how far I want to open them & they are in sanley loud.

I'm also debating adding Cut Outs to my 2015 stock Z/28. The Weeds brand looks good but so does the Quick Time Performance Brand .... Subscribed and thanks for the info.

No problem. I'm packing up and heading out tomorrow for the Camaro Nationals in Fredrick,Maryland for 4 days.

How much does it cost for the cutouts?
