I have QTP cut outs on mine right now, I love the crap out of them. Loud when I want to play and quite when I don't or anywhere in between.

By far my favorite mod that i've done so far.

Ive yet to hear anyone bad mouth electric cut outs.. want some good input and advice? Contact Patches, a long time forum member.. he is by far one of the most helpful members of this forum. He has first hand knowledge of past and present offering in the cut out department. ED ( Patches) has installation files that are top shelf contributions to this forum.
He's a genuine gentleman and always willing to help anyone if asked. Hell if you lived within a hundred miles of him , he would come right over and install them for you. LOL.
He also knows a lot about those dive material seat covers.

Electric cut outs are a ton of fun.. I loved mine.(Just pulled my hole exhaust system) Mine were dhm low profile cut outs. Dave the owner has a 4 year unlimited warranty on his products. I had one motor go bad in the 4th year of owning them and he sent me 2 motors no charge. Jam up. Have heard lots of good things about him from others and about QTP too.

Do you have any current engine/exhaust mods?

Having QTP cutouts installed this week on mine. Gave the install thread Patches had posted as a guide for the shop doing the install. Also, PM'd Patches with some questions which he was good enough to answer for me.

I believe the total was around $360 for the (2) 2.5" dump valves and 2 Y-pipe inserts, Then another $20 to have some one weld the stainless steal. I put the switch were my ash tray used to be. Nice and hidden

Been about 2 years since I installed them so prices may have changed some.
