Hello all,
I'm interested in buying these, however I'm getting a lot of differing information with 2 different shops about installing them. I can't tell if I'm just being told info for the up sale, or if there is a lack of experience with the car/cutout itself.
Purpose: To stay stock quiet as I regularly get in my car between the times of 2-6am. However be muscle car loud at all other times.
Product: I'm getting these cutouts with the remote accessory so there is no customization inside the car.

Setup: I'm completely stock, 2017 GT PP.
Installation: Where do these go? I would assume past the cats but before the resonator?
Questions: One shop said we can do it no problem, $400. Another shop said they would need to delete the resonator, install an X-pipe and Magnaflow mufflers out the back, all for $500 (including the cutout install).
Does the resonator need to be deleted? If it is deleted and an H-Pipe is put in, then does it change the sound if the cutouts are installed before the "H" part of the pipe (I assume the crossing over and equalizing the exhaust pressure is what changes the sound)?
He claims that installing the Magnaflow mufflers out the back will make the car quieter than it is now with the X pipe installed, but I find that hard to believe. Who buys/sells aftermarket exhaust to make the car quieter?
Recommendations: Anyone in Atlanta, GA area that can make a shop recommendation? I've only been able to find 2.
