I haven't noticed a whistle sound with my exhaust, but then again I've only had it for about a month and have only heard it from the inside of the car. I don't think you'll gain much, if any, horsepower with a cutout since the SLP exhaust is already a straight shot through the muffler.

I've had my 2OTL for almost 4 years and all I hear is rumble.

Never have I heard of anyone saying a 2OTL "whistled".

Actually, under WOT, my 2OTL does have a slight whistle noise. It doesnt bother me at all, and think the cutout would just kill the killer sound of the 2OTL

Ok, I guess someone else has heard something. No such thing from mine.

My 2OTL had the whistle noise, the only thing you can do is replace it another 2 OTL muffler. I was able to save my exhaust pipes, and tips, so I only had to buy the muffler. The whistle noise is annoying as hell, it sounds like an old VW beatal (see: cricket on PCP.) Also, I am not a fan of cut outs. Good luck with your car.
