The QTP QTEC is the one to get IMO.

I use a Qtec and I'm happy with it.

I replaced the switch because I didn't like the stocker. I now use a convertible top switch instead.

The quick disconnect on the wire failed so I replaced that.Soldered and shrink wrapped. I will eventually switch to a packard/GM weatherpack connector.

It leaks a bit so I used some RTV where the butterfly meets up with the AL baseplate.Still leaks some but I can deal with it.

All in all it's not perfect but I think it's the best set-up out there.

BTW: the flowtech cut-out is garbage as far as quality goes. If you can make the cut-out yourself and use the QTEC w/that you'd be better off.

The new Streetpro has got nothing but good reviews. Run it open, closed, and anywhere in between. The pics I have seen look great, the only drawback is the $$$$$$

I've had the Street Pro for about 2 months. Absolutely PERFECT! Very nicely built, very reliable, very quick, and has excellent ground clearance. Plus customer service is great and they have a very good warranty.

Just to let you know -- there is another cutout available of a little different design-- check out the Street Pro 3' Street / Strip --- it may (or may not) give you some other options --
