I assume you mean the electric kind. I don't know specifically, but I'd bet the boys over on the LS forums would know (Ls1.com, ls1tech.com, ls2.com). They always seem to want cutouts for whatever reason.

Spend the money on a better sounding exhaust system .. I gained power by switching to Magnaflow Magnapacks from a muffler delete.

It would be kinda fun, pull up next to a ricer and flip the switch to scare the bejesus out of him...

I don't want a new system. I like the sound of my O/R x-pipe and stock mufflers. i just want somethin for the track and the occasional intimidation factor.

I'd still want an electric gate on mine...Cops get annoyed with noise, for some reason. I think they envy us...

Summit Racing has a package with everything in it, 2 electric butterflys, 2 stainless steel y-pipes, the wiring kit, and the rocker switch for only $349.99. I think thats what I'm going with.

I have the QTP package (2 cutouts & cut electronic flanges) on my 2007 GT. I dont know how to weld, and went to a performance shop. They put them right after the cats.

The sound is very quite at idle and awesome when accelerating (but not too loud).

I cant keep them like this though. It console gets really hot after a short time (from the exit being right there) and a lot of vibration that can not be good for the transmission (the exit is pretty much right under the transmission).

Also it is pointless from a performance standpoint to have them after the cats.

I am looking into to other pipes with cats further down to put the cutouts on before or some flex pipes for now to get the heat/vibrations away from the middle of the car.
