Default Poor Man's exhaust cut-out

I maded it myself.

Super sleeper hidden secret lever behindish the seat


Cleaned up for that OEM look.


Up in the air


Here's the rest of my exhaust BTW.


Feast your eyes upon the glory.






you cant see if unless you're under the car...I think and it actually works perfect. Im still gonna clean up the welds and stuff and attach the throttle body on there a bit better but otherwise it's done.

The muffler is super restrictive b/c I wanted it to sound close to stock. This'll help a lot.

Might want to use something other than JB. Heat sometimes causes it to fail prematurely
