    Cutouts will end up leaking...always. esp the electric ones. Eventually they will not close all the way.

    will do. i was thinking about that but i was going to finish the exhaust completely when adding that kit on to make the dp fit right and everything. you think i should throw some headers on it?? btw your car is awesome, i love the wheels .
    no can do, u need stock manifolds, but i recommend doing this ( pic below ) WRAP IT

    Really thats news to me? What ****ty brand were you using or was this something you heard?
    My previous GTP had a manual summit racing one for 3 years before I sold the car. Never once had a leak when the gasket and cover were installed.

    odd I never had clearance issues with my previous GTP then again it wasn't lowered. Just installed a manual on my current GP that has eibach springs. It sits fairly low and clearances just barely.
