I have the Quicktime Performance electric cutout and it is very high quality and works well! It makes for a very trick system.

Re: exhaust cutout

I have researched cutouts a lot. I've talked to many domestic guys and Grand National guys. The cutouts with the valves are CRAP. Do not get them unless you don't care about having a continuous exhaust leak.

But, if you get a 2.5" Flowtech Exhaust Cutout, the leaking isn't a problem. Those don't have the valve. They have a cap with a gasket with 3 wing nuts. Those are worth it IF you get it welded on nicely by a muffler shop. The price for the cutout is under $20.

Or if you want a nice valve that you can control from within the car, then do what i30krab has. Those things are over $150.

Just don't get the cutout with the valve that you can control from within the car with a cable. You will have exhaust leaks.
