QTEC owns. You can get it in 2.25, 2.5, 3, or 3.5 inch sizes. Great product.

I've got one (Quicktime) on my turbo hatch. I love it! I have a stock muffler hanging out the back, so the car is basicaly stock sounding with the cutout closed, and it isn't too loud with it open.

I have the Qtec 3".... what gets me is the opening actually measures 2.5" in diameter. The model number on the packaging says 3", has anyone else measured their's?

Im not positive if Im going to use it yet though...I'll decide in the near future if Im going to keep it or not.

I have got the 3in also, and mine also looks like the actual opening is only 2.5. I will try to get some pics up on Monday so you guys can check it out.

you welded down somewhere in your exhaust system and with a switch you can have it closed (exhaust gases flow like normal through your muffler) or open (exhasut gases flow straight out, sorta like open dp). that the rough idea. do a search and there was a thread with more details and pictures of it.

edit found a picture

If anyone is thinking about getting a mccord i would suggest not to, they are absolute garbage, i have 2 of the on 2 different cars and they both broke, the gears and stop couplings are garbage, their construction is garbage

I would pay the extra money and get the better made one
