i saw something like that on trucks once, but it was basically a dump that would bypass the mufflers completely, making it a straight pipe basically.
And FWIW, i don't think there's any sacrifice in performance for the setup on the vette!

Exhaust cutouts are a bit different from normal valved units.
Pretty cool though.

I should have clarified. The Yamaha design and the system on the vette are not cut-outs, merely blockages in the actual exhaust pipe.
Cut-outs are different for obvious reasons.
