Dmh Or Qtec Cutout.
Dmh Or Qtec Cutout. Hey guys just a quick poll on which is a more popular e-cutout it seems DMH has a really good warranty 4yrs and QTP onlt 90 days your thoughts would be appreciated.
i just got the mccord. it has i believe either a 1 or 3 year war. i think the 3yr is only for limited stuff. you can get it from byunspeed. i am real happy with it. its a nice piece. but i have not ever seen any of the others. just giving my .02 that its worth looking into.

I had a Qtech and it never lasted more than a few months at a time.
First time it broke I sent it back and paid to have it fixed (it broke in warranty but I was relocating and did not get to sending it off till after warranty was up) Second time it broke which was again after a month or two, I took it apart replace some stripped screws and put lock tite, it help for a week or so and it fell apart again. I called qtec and they said sure we will fix it, ship it back again, pay shipping, and pay for repairs. So I said screw it and chunked it in the garbage where it belonged.
The main problem was a poor design. The electric motor kept falling off of the assemble. Also there is a shaft from the motor assembly that went through to the butterfly flap that has some set screws, one stripped so i drilled it through and put a bolt and nut with lock tite and it held
If I ever do it again I would try the DMH it looks better built from what I have seen.
