Default STI Exhaust cutout

This might be a repost but i searched quickly and didnt see it. This is actually the first exhaust cutout on a sti ive acctually seen working. Pretty neat.

ive got one on my car but took the electric motor part off and put a plate on a while ago. switched to a catback instead, i tended to always drive around with the cutout open......hehe talk about drone. but tunnel runs ftw. not sure how i never got pulled over.
heres a vid i shot with a friend http://media.putfile.com/cutout-on-my-car some freeway overpasses in like 5th....
probably going to take that dp off if anyone is interested in taking it off my hands.

Yea those are really cool. I have one on my GN, and all I can say is that it is LOUD!! It's also nice to have the electrical switch so you can close it really fast if you see the po-po . It also allows you to open it part way, which makes it kinda fun to play around with the sound.

That looks pretty good. I'm guessing a cutout like this would give some gains in power? I'm assuming it's installed post cat so boost creep shouldn't be an issue for a car with no EM? What disadvantages would something like this have besides the loudness?

small gains in power, loudness, and boost responce. Mainly cause the gases bypass the cat and exhaust and shoot right out before the cat or exhaust if you have no cats then just the exhaust.
