Yes, it works great, mine is a little over a year old and has been opened and closed more than a hundred times, has needed no maintenance or repairs.

Your thread will probably be bombarded or locked however, as brand Q is a sponsor, while McCord is not. Keith (McCord) is a good guy.

My QTP works fine. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Barry is a good guy too. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Click on the QTP logo for info.

i have the qtp electric cutout and it is awesome...it is connected to my borla system and it is so much easier to just flip a switch instead of taking out the plates....quicktime performance is the way to go!!!!!! <img border="0" alt="[Firebird]" title="" src="graemlins/formula.gif" />

I've got dual QTEC's on my car, and work amazingly well. I had a single MPP on my car before I put in the duals, and what a POS that was.

Not saying that either *person* is better than the other, just saying that in my exp. The QTEC is the better product.
