About 130-140$ new and about 20-30buck fir install. Check out parts for sale and then do a search you and probably find a used one. I use a NON elec flowtech it was only 30 bucks. I have to jack up one side of the car to get to it. However I never close it. Once you hear an LS1 with a cut out you will never close it.

Street Pro for around $240. Very nice unit and well worth the extra dollars.

Single McCord. $105 plus shipping. FLP ended up doing a custom install for me so it tucks up nice and tight. Was hanging too low with the car lowered.

Yes, I bought the first gen McCord PP and it took a crap on me, bought their 2nd gen PP, that took a crap on me. I don't think I'll be buying another.

I searched and found a lot of motor issues, that's why I went with the more expensive Street Pro.

Got the DMH dual 3" motorized, but you need ground clearance.....you'll have problems w/SLP LT headers and the Bilstein suspension package. $350 w/harnesses.

See my webpage....had to modify the Y-pipe.

Provided w/flowtech cutouts -- Be careful on which type you select and the compatibility to your vehicle. Install cost was almost as much as the cutouts themselves.

They lasted 6 mos and 7K miles until I bottomed out so many times that one of the motors dislodged from the housing. Luckily I found it along side the road. DMH honored them and sent me brand new ones.

Warranty and customer service is top-notch. Now, just gotta re-raise the car back to stock

I have DMH for Borla, it is real nice so far. I love it quiet, but then gets loud when I want it.
