    in my opinion, i think a well tuned exhaust system, (not that any of us can change our exhaust everytime we make a dyno run), will yield the greatest gains because when both of my tail pipes rotted off the muffler, my truck ran like ****, besides sounding loud and hollow. i actually went under the truck and welded one of 2 exits shut. after that, it felt torqueyer and sounded a little better too.
    i think that a certain level of ''back pressure to hp'' is very crucial for maximum hp and torque. just my opinion. theres probably some science
    behind it, im just not smart enough to know what it is.

    there is my fav vido of cut outs..

    yea they are worth it

    if you get the right ones they wont leak and if they do they have a LIFETIME warranty.
    Race Ready Performance // Electric Exhaust Cutouts

    they maybe be about 100 bux more then QTP but its worth it for a life time warranty on leaks and the motors wearing out. just make sure you fill out the warranty card an mail it in to them with in like 15 days.
