I remember reading some posts a while back of one of the companies breaking after short term use. I am sure if you search the achieves in FI you will find out which company it was.

E-cutouts have a poor service record. Try an m-cutout, works great for those of us with hoodpins and the hood release cable just dangling there, or the patience to fit another cable.

I picked up a 75mm (~3") Mustang TB that had a chip out of the slip fit area and bust0red TPS for $30, plan on using it to vent those surly turbocharged exhaust gasses on the new setup. FYI, the idea's half Speed Phreak's, props for the all night brainstorming sessions!

I use A quicktime Cutout on my personal car.
Its not a bad peice overall.
I wouldnt mind trying some of the other ones listed here.
IMO it comes with a much nicer Wiring/switch setup than the rest of those.

They tend to fall apart in some situations. But it you can get a good mount for it, keep away from alot of vibration, etc... it will be fine.
I think they all will suffer from the same situations as the Labeled quicktime faults.

Have to use some silicone to seal it up, Loctite the bolts for some extra Precaution.

I have a mccord power plate, it's not on my car yet, but I've never seen anyone complain about them. The shaft is also welded to the butterfly, so that's less bolts to worry about falling out on you. Accordfreak used his for a while and never had a problem with it. . .
