Default Exhuast Cutout?? low profile?

I was trying to get a streetpro but I've had absolutely **** customer service from them and now I can't even get on their website or find their phone number anywhere so I think they might have gone under. So the hell with them they were expensive anyway... I'm going to look into my second choice who made that low profile electric exhaust cutout? I remember seeing pictures of it a while ago but can't find the thread or remember who made it.

thanks in advance.

I got my regular 3" QTP cut out to tuck up further than the rest of my exhaust. I don't see any reason to get a low profile one. Just put it in the right place and twist it so the valve is as close to the under carriage as you can get it.

DMH should be your first choice.

well thats how I feel... only ever seen good reviews on DMH but no one local sells them. Everyone here has RaceReady e-cutouts anyone have any experience with them and if so how was it?

I'm also planning on get dual cutouts aswell.

I have a RaceReady E-cutout and I like it. I've had it for about a year and no problems EXCEPT for today. The butterfly valve kept getting stuck open and then it wouldnt shut. Maybe it just needs a shot of WD-40 to free it up a little. Other than that, no problems.
