Default Summit/Jegs Cutouts???

Has anyone had experience with either of these? Looking into getting a set just want to make sure they are good quality.

Thanks

They arent. They are chinese knock offs. Weak motors that leak. Seen to many of the summit brand parts that are great price and then you get it and its a POS. Go with QTPs. So much better.

I've got a Summit E-cutout on my car. Only had it a month, but so far so good.

The Jegs brand cutouts are really a nice piece. We sell alot of them at work and I haven't seen one returned yet.

Nothing against Summit or Jegs, but I just recently got the QTP e-cutout, 3 inch, and its very nice workmanship. They give you a good gasket for it to.
