Default Cut out direction

For you guys running non-electric cut-outs, which direction do you have yours?

Facing the ground (clearance problem?)
Turned to the inside of the chassis
Turned to the outside of the chassis

I picked up a pair of flowtech race readies for like $20 new from a friend and didn't know how you guys had them. On my Camaro I had them pointed out due to clearance problems.

Thanks

It really doesn't matter which way they point, as long as they are accessible to you.

I put mine right off the pacesetter collector. They are angled just a little bit towards the frame rails.

I would think they would be most effective pointing towards the back.

Seriously, though, I'm thinking about cutouts for my new exhaust. Should I just put 1 after the ORY to bypass the muffler, or should I put 1 right at each collector. I'll probably be going electric, so there is a big price difference.

Thanks

Yeah I don't think it would be good to point them forwards....lol

I just wanted an idea of how everyone else is installing theirs. On my camaro I had to point them out due to the lower stance. I'm planning on deleting the cats and putting them right after my pacesetters.

I like the idea of angled just a bit, make it easier to access when the time comes.

Thanks
