There are basically two sides to this issue. Some will tell you that back pressure is not an issue, but I for one know from experience that if your reduce back pressure you also loose some low end torque.

In an NA you want some backpressure.

Cutout are for cars that have stickers like "my other car is a mobile home" or "vote for brother-sister marriages" or "chewing tobacco, the other white meat"
