When putting the cut outs on, mark your pipe with white shoe polish and go down the road at wot for a little ways. Where ever that shoe Polish doesn't burn off stick the cut outs there. You have a little wiggle room to play with if you do this with a stock muffler. The paint would burn at a different area without a muffler but it won't be much different. The muffler restricting the air flow would cause the different place for the polish to burn off. I've also heard a paint marker works as well. If you plan on changing manifold, cat, etc I d wait until all of that was done to your liking before the paint thing. Installing cut outs would be at the bottom of the to do list.

Whats the paint thing tell you?

With no cats, i believe paint would burn off my chrome tips, they get incredibly hot. They sizzle when they get dipped in water.

I never thought the tips would get that hot after cutting the cats off. If you have been running it a while, you won't make the mistake of touching them but once.
