It fits with a stock Lariat engine cover. CNC-machined aluminum barbed fittings create a secure connection between the lines and the can. Internal air diverter increases air turbulence to improve oil separation. Filters and can are fully serviceable. Mishimoto 877-466-4744 www.mishimoto.com ELECTRIC EXHAUST CUTOUTS THESE Exhaust cutouts offer the best of both worlds. You can keep them closed for a quieter exhaust on the street, and then open them up for that race car-like sound along with better exhaust scavenging. Made from stainless steel, the cutouts’ design and compact size eliminates modifications to the Y-pipe, making them truly a DIY install in a variety of locations and a large range of applications—even lowered vehicles. No switches or wires are needed to operate the cutouts, just simple two-wire hookup to the battery or fuse panel for the wireless remote. Patriot Exhaust Electric Exhaust Cutouts are available to fit 2.5- and 3-inch diameter pipes for both single and dual exhaust systems.
