Wish I had seen this before I bought mine. These are stainless instead of coated steel. These would last much longer. Oh well, now you all know.

Don't feel too bad, It's like Howie might say on "Deal, or no Deal"... You got a good quality product, you just didn't get a great quality product.

I keep seeing how others spen alot of money on aftermarket exhaust components to reduce backpressure and I wonder if this would be a good alternative? http://www.pfyc.com/store/merchant.mv?Sc...gory_Code=GPEXH

Cutouts are good for the track, but my GP is my every day driver. I would go insane listening to the exhaust if I used the cutout. And, if I was to keep the cutout closed...well it simply wouldn't be any different than what I have now.

So basically I think they are only good for the track and not road use.

Keep in mind they don't seal completely when closed so you get an awful sounding exhaust leak that will drive you nuts.
