Default Cutout****

Right now I have LM on my Z and am plannin on gettin pacesetters and TSP ORY, but untill then I want some noise now. I know I want the QTP electric cuttout but since its so cheap I was thinkin that I want to get it first.

What do you guys think? I want to install it now but then would I be able to cut it back out again and put it in my ORY I pipe once I get that installed?

just get the headers and Y pipe first then put the cutout in so you dont have to cut it back out and weld it back up again. there are other electric cutouts you can look into like DMH, MCcord Powerplate, QTP isnt the only one.

MCcord Powerplate has the LED switch and you can send them any switch you want and they will hook it up. check them out

P.S. they are also cheaper then QTP and they weld there butterfly to the shaft so it is more of a reliable electric cutout.
