Exhaust cutouts
 

Sometime in the near future I'm going to get another crx. When I turbo it I still want it to remain somewhat sleeperish. I want to keep the stock exhaust, and then use a 3" downpipe and a manual cutout. What's your opinon of how that'll work? How much power will I lose when the cutout is closed? Anything else to worry about?

it's amazing how many times this question has been posted..the only problem i see is you need to tune for running with the cutout open..and....thats about it....check out summit racing for the manual ones

Or, depending on what type and how your planning to open the cutout, you could have it open at a certain RPM or throttle position, and tune it that way.

Manual Cut Out = teh suck.... Electronic = teh w1n~!

I have a manual cut out right now on my NA rex, it sucks, I hate having to try get it to seal again. The electronic is the best way to go, easy open/close with just the flip of a switch. DMH offers a 4 year warrnety. You cant go wrong there..... Good luck.

atpturbo.com makes a pretty bad ass one... has an actuator on it...so when it sees boost it opens up completely

From what I've heard they're kinda crappy tho

this ---- is piss. why would you want it to be loud every time your in boost. i wouldn't want to even boost cuz i would get annoyed of the super quiet then all of a sudden loud when im in boost.

just use a normal 3inch exhaust with a magna flow muffler

Serisouly, it wouldn't even be much more than the money you would spend on a cutout.
