Anyone have exhaust cutouts on N52?

Thinking about doing an exhaust cutout setup on my 3.0si. Has anyone done this, either with a vacuum actuated or electric setup? I am thinking about tapping into the sport mode button wiring, so when I want a bit more of an aggressive sound, I just push the button. It makes perfect sense to me to do it that way. Has anyone else done this? Also, where is the best place to install the cutouts? Details please!

Interesting, but this one looks like its vacuum actuated, which wouldn't make it "switchable" . I've since put the idea on the backburner. I still think it can be done, but it will involve deleting both the resonator and running all new pipe and tips.

Really not that involved. https://www.amazon.ca/s/?ie=UTF8&key...l_5b568v8sn9_b
Find a universal kit sized to the stock exhaust pipe and splice it in. Either cut and weld or flare and clamp.

Not sure where one would fit one in under our cars though.
