also, i have a related question. when you open the cutout before the muffler, the theory is that the air will take the path of least resistance, but in the case of high performance straight through mufflers, there is very little resistance. wouldnt a fair percentage of the air go through the muffler anyways?

it makes alot more sense to have first, a manual cutout that is always open, and then an inline valve before the muffler, so the valve can close off the path to the muffler. has anyone tried this with a plumbing valve or something?
they do make cable operated ones but I havent seen any 3" just 2.5" and smaller
