I needed to quit things down a bit, so I installed the silencer in the exhaust tip. I would like to install an electric cut-out. Any reccomendations or comments?

 

I want one too, but there like $150

 

where do you find those at?

 

McCord Power Plate www.mccordcg.com/mpp/mpp.htm

It retails for $99+6 shipping

 

I just posted my thread up in the TECH section yesterday regarding my use of this item:

Hope that helps.

 

st00pid is, you might wanna talk with him.

 

I don't know why but most cutouts have it set up so when it's closed it goes straight thru the normal exhaust system, and when the cutout is open, the open leg is the one that goes off at an angle. Maybe that's more for install convenience rather than for proformance reasons.

What brand did you use?

quick time performance sells the best electric cutout I have ever seen. the owner is a friend of mine and a couple of my friends have them on all types of cars from turbo civics to 99 camaro SS. the website is http://www.quicktimeperformance.com. it's out of hackensack NJ. ranging from 2"-4" manual and electric. very good design.

 

That's the one I was looking for. Thanks

 

That's where I got mine from as well (QuickTime Perforance)

I got the 2.5" one

Yes for convenience, most people place it off a Y.

yeah i have my cutout i got from jeg(2.5inch) and i am ordering the power plate
u guys watch the vid on there site? pretty kewl

 

Not bad, $169 for a 3" cutout package... I like!!

 

How well does the flap prevent exhuast from comming out when it is closed? Is there leakage? If so how much? Explain what keeps it seal up.

 

the flap does a real good job of preventing exhaust coming out. they redesigned it with a thicker plate to help seal the leak. unless your making a ungodly amount of power it shouldn't leak.

btw, QTP's and MCcord's electric cutout are the same. it's just one employee quit and started his own brand.

 

There is a small leak (using a stock b18B so it doesn't produce enormous HP ) that we've noticed so far. The part is CNC'd so it is a tight seal but when you look closely at the valve you do notice a small hole near where the center rod of the valve connects to the entire unit.

We're waiting for more carbon buildup to occur to see if that will rectify it or make it worse. Thus it still being in the "testing" phase.

As far as the small leak, it sounds the same if you had a very small exhaust leak (not noticeable at idle)

 

yeah, i tried riggin up a manual cut out that i got for 25 bucks. It was absolute garbage...no seal at all, it leaked all over the place.

 

If anyone is interested I just spoke to the guys over there at quicktimeperformance.com. Seem like nice straight up guys....domestic car lovers non the less, but car 's
Anyways, we just setup a dealer account with them. Pricing isnt available as of yet, but if your interested in one then responde to this thread.

possibly want one

 

 

I'm thinking of getting one of these cut-outs. Do you think most muffler places would weld in the Jeg's piece? I went to a couple places to see if they would LOOSEN the bolts on my cat so I could take it in and out when at the track, but they wouldn't do it! Choads.

Tntgsr, just wondering...is that a v16 in your avatar?!

 

 

Hell yeah thats a V16. Its Cadillac's "ultra luxury concept". There are some pictures and a vid here:
