Default which manual cutout brand? suggestions

which brand of exhaust cutout should i get just more a manual one from summit, I live 15 mins from there so its more convenient to buy one then to order and wait for it. they have flowtech, magnaflow, pipes , raceready and summit. i like the summit because its cheapest, and i can always buy the electric cutout later when i get tired of getting out of the car to open it.

I've always wondered whether the cable operated ones are worth a damn or not. Not to threadjack, but if anyone has any experience I'd be all ears. Hell perhaps it could work out for you too.


Mean looking car by the way.

My friend got a manual one and in 2 months the cable rusted so bad it either broke or got stuck. Just have someone tac some bolts to the cutout so you can remove the cap with wingnuts if you can't afford an electric one

I have a pair of these that I never installed, just laying around:

3" stainless, natural. Expensive n00b mistake buying them. Thought I'd put them on the red car but didn't use them there, either.
