Cool BEST cut outs

I just did a search but didnt quite find what i was looking for...

My question is simple:

What brand for Cut Out's (Electric) do ya'll recommend?

I dont know of any other brands that make them besides QTP, & as for that brand i hear nothing but bad thing's.... I need an Electric cut out that will last.

Thank You

I have a McCord unit (BYUNSpeed sells them), works great, and was pretty cheap. Been running it since August with no problems.

I used a Streetpro electric cutout for a few hundred miles (before I went to true duals) and it was awesome. They aren't a sponsor so I can't post a link, but if you can't find the website, send me a pm.

In fact, the one I had on my car is sitting in my shop if someone wants to make me an offer.

I kind of wish I'd have just kept the factory catback and gotten a cutout. Granted, I like my Magnamouth, but sometimes I just want it silent

Yea, i think im going with DMH, even the sales guy advised me on getting DMH over the "other" brand he sell's.
Im in love with the sound of my car, just not in the morning. I feel bad when i get home late, or wake up early with that thing
