BTW I have searched.
I picked up a catalogue from a local Ford perf. shop, in it I saw exhaust cutouts. These cutouts go in after the cat. They give the option of running a straight through exuast system while at the track and when on the road using your mufflers.
To activate the cutouts, you simply have to take off two butterfly bolts.
My logic is that if a Borla/Bassani catback gains 8-10 hp then this should net the same if not more. The downside is that it probably sounds pretty bad and you cannot run it on the street.
My question is, does any one have this, and if so give me some details.
Thanks in advance!
97' 2.5L Contour SE -T-Red Midas exhaust (grr...), Sony CD player, K&N airfilter, Mobil One Synthetic Oil, removed intake resonator, modified MAF, in-fender CAI, painted grill, Platinum tipped NGK's. I am looking for SVT E0's or E1's, SVT Upper & Lower Intake, SVT Throttle Body, and SVT Exhaust. If you are selling, e-mail me! Ford4eva@hotmail.com

They also run the peak HP right up the rpm band and the expense of low and midrange punch.
Great for high rpm drag strip launches. nothing else.
That's provided your engine can make use of the higher rpm power band. Most can not.
Also getting traction from a launch like that you would be needing a LSD and slicks. You can only slip your clutch so much....

So this wont make any power increase? even on a tour with stock exhaust?

i think till you have lots of power in the high range you would just be kicking your self in the ass keep the low end power you have so you dont have to lauch at such a high rpm. also demon hit the head on replacing your diff and get some slicks or drag radials. and the problem with slicks you would want to get them hot or you be in the same place as cutting out your exhaust your car would just die from the grip they would have.
i was just at the route 66 drag stripp for battle of the imports and the only cars cutting out with a dump tube were high powered turbos
all i need now is a lot of throttle and a whole lot of bottle
i wish i was a NitroFish
