Finally Pictures

Well I finally got the pictures and the rest of the electronics (for the cutout, which sounds great) installed this past weekend. Here they are. I know the lLimited pkg is not for everyone but I like it and it is unique.

nice... how does it sound?..

also.. i notice those are QTP... same thing as what i got on my mustang.. everyonce and a while.. check the motor on the buterfly, and all the bolts, and make sure nothing is coming loose.. after about 4 months of having them on my car (and i turn them on and off like 5 times a day) they started coming apart.. and actually.. like.. reallly fell apart.. the cylinder between the motor and butterfly went flying down the road..

but they fixed it up for me for like 60 bucks for both cutouts..

best thing i ever did tho.. have fun

What is the purpose of the cutout?

It sounds mean which is what the truck needed. But it is nice being abel to turn it on and off when needed. Thanks for the heads up on QTP, I will keep an eye on it.

Your truck looks fantastic.. i love the white limited.


F150 B.F.D.M- i have been dying to put a set of electric cutouts on my turbo mustang... i was wondering with them installed, do you hear any type of exhaust leaking at all?

I'd tend to think probably a lot more sound and not so much performance on these low end torque trucks.

It would be neat to see a dyno comparison though.

Any sound clips? just curious to what it sounds like with the stock exhaust still on there and then the cutout before, sounds like open headers?

Limited, nice Limited truck you got there. This is the first time I've ever seen or heard of the electric cutoff pipe. Nice idea.
