Universal 2.5"-3" Electric Exhaust Cutout Y Pipe Kit

Take control of your exhaust sound and flow at the touch of a button

This Universal 2.5"-3" Electric Exhaust Cutout Valve Y Pipe System with Remote Controller is designed for drivers who want direct control over their vehicle's exhaust flow. Installed into your existing exhaust line, the Y-pipe and electric cutout valve allow you to divert gases away from the standard muffler path, giving you the ability to switch between a quieter, more restricted setup and a more open, free-flowing configuration from inside the cabin.

The system features an electrically actuated butterfly valve housed in a Y-shaped exhaust section. With a compatible 2.5"-3" connection range, this kit can be adapted to a wide variety of vehicles and custom exhaust builds. The included remote controller lets you open or close the valve with a simple button press, without needing to access the underside of the vehicle. This makes it suitable for street cars, track builds, and project vehicles where quick adjustment of exhaust routing is desired.

Engineered for typical automotive operating conditions, the electric exhaust cutout is rated for working temperatures from 0°C to 150°C. For best performance and longevity, it should not be activated in extremely cold conditions below approximately -5°C, as low temperatures can affect internal lubrication and may cause the butterfly valve to stick. The motor assembly is not waterproof, so operation in heavy rain, deep standing water, or similar environments is not recommended. Proper placement and shielding during installation will help protect the motor from road spray and debris.

The Y-pipe configuration is designed to split the exhaust flow, allowing you to maintain your existing exhaust path while adding a selectable bypass route. This makes the kit suitable for custom setups where you want to retain your current muffler and piping but add on-demand exhaust redirection. The universal nature of the pipe and valve means it can be integrated into many different layouts, provided the installer verifies diameter and available space before purchase and installation.

Before ordering, carefully check the exhaust diameter and available mounting space on your vehicle. Professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure correct welding, sealing, wiring, and switch placement. The package includes an electric exhaust cutout assembly and remote control components required to operate the valve once it is installed and wired to the vehicle's electrical system.

Why It's a Smart Choice

• On-demand exhaust control lets you switch between a more open or more routed exhaust path using the included remote.
• Universal 2.5"-3" Y-pipe design supports a wide range of custom exhaust setups and vehicle types.
• Electric actuation and remote operation reduce the need for manual adjustments under the vehicle, improving convenience and usability.

FAQ

Q: Will this fit my vehicle?
A: This kit is designed for universal use with exhaust systems in the 2.5"-3" diameter range. Measure your existing exhaust piping and check available space for the Y-pipe and motor before ordering. Custom welding or fabrication may be required.

Q: Can I install this myself?
A: Installation typically requires cutting the existing exhaust, welding or clamping the Y-pipe in place, and wiring the electric valve and remote controller. For safety, sealing, and reliability, professional installation is recommended.

Q: Is the valve motor waterproof?
A: The valve motor is not waterproof and should not be operated in heavy rain or submerged conditions. During installation, position and shield the motor to minimize exposure to water and road spray.

Q: Can I use it in very cold weather?
A: The working temperature range is approximately 0°C to 150°C. Below about -5°C, internal oil can thicken and may cause the valve to stick. Avoid operating the cutout in extremely cold conditions to protect the mechanism.

Q: Does this replace my entire exhaust system?
A: No. This kit is designed to be integrated into your existing exhaust as an additional Y-pipe and cutout valve, allowing you to redirect exhaust flow when desired while retaining your current system.
