Default Anyone used cutouts on their exhaust

I was wondering if anyone on here had put cut-outs in their exhaust system and was wondering if you have what kind of difference does it make

My buddy does on his Trans Am, and it sounds great. When he wants noise, just flip a switch on the dash, and bam, super loud. When he wants quiet, just flip the switch back, and your back to stock....

Yea one of my roommates has them on his GTO that he's changed all his cam's and internals and it idles raw as hell and then he opens the cut-outs and it sounds like a straight old-school muscle car, but I was wondering if anyone had done them on a SC

when I do a turbo kit, Im going to run the stock cats, stock catback and put a cutout pre-cats to give it a total sleeper sound and look until I race.

the cheaper cutout seem to have issues fully closing and you have to play with the switch to get them to close correctly.

I'm putting in Magna Flow street mufflers and one 3.5 inch cutout this winter. It will be opened via AEM EMS just right before boost hits.
