I have a DMH. Been on the car for over a year and every time I drive the car I am opening and closing it. Have had no problems at all.

DMH hands down....I've had mine for over three years with no issues until a couple weeks ago. The bolts that hold the motor to the flange backed out and I lost the motor on the highway. I never heard it hit anything....it was just gone. I called Dave at DMH and he told me to send it in. No questions asked...just send it in and he'd take care of it. You cannot beat that kind of warranty or service. And for the record, this is not a common occurrence with DMH cutouts....he was surprised that it had happened. Either way, he made it right and that's all that counts!!

Another dmh here. QTP only has a 90 day warranty. DMH is 3 years I think.

QTP makes nothing, they buy from others and I bet you can guess who, look at the units carefully, you may see some similarites ;0)

Anything polished SS and 1/2 to 1/3 of the price of anyone else selling a SS cutout tells you one thing,ITs MADE IN CHINA.

Doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out if its priced ALOT cheaper(say 1/2 the price) than anything comparable and its polished SS,its made in China.

Dont know if the electric motor is made in China but id be pretty certain they are since the pipe is....

I kind of have a dumb question. I know if you get the dual cutouts where you put them, but if you just get one, where would you put that...or do you just not get one you get two?

I orderd the DMH.
I will only be running one after my x-pipe. (which should let both headers breath equally)

Also I already have dual 2.5 pipes from the 1 7/8 kooks all the way back.

One cutout should let out all that I need.
Now I just gotta think were I want to put the switch .



I basicly realy want this for the sound.

But what do you guys think for Hp, can I gain 4-5 whp since im cammed ?
