The main purpose of the cut-out is to eliminate the restriction of the exhaust. You will obviously lose the backpressure and the low-end torque but will gain the top-end horse.

Bah to all you saying true duals give clearance problems.
A friend of mine has a 93 Z28 with a built 383 LT1 stroker in it, and he has true duals with dynomax bullets dumping at the axle. He has no clearance issues, and if you know what my city is like (Winnipeg), we have the WORST roads EVER. Take an American city that is known for its shitty roads, let a Winnipegger drive through it, and we'll rant and rave how your roads are so awesome. No lie.
Having said that, go true duals with an H-pipe. While an x-pipe yields slightly more power, an H-pipe cancels out the higher frequencies in the exhaust, giving you a deep, rumbly, mess-in-your-pants-good sound.
