Where is a good place to get electric cutouts at a decent price? I am going to need 2 because i am running dual exhaust.

 

mine cost $100 bucks....the McCord Power Plate...they have a pretty good warranty. That's about the base price..anywhere between $100-$200 bucks....I love mine.....one of the best "add on's" I've installed

 

Same here. I only run 1, but they sell them pre-wired as a pair for like $200. The cool thing is, the prewire the whole thing so all you have to do is hook up power and ground. I put in a relay to be sure not to drain the battery. They go from full closed to full open in about 2.5 seconds. It's kind of cool because you can just crack it for a little more noise, or open it all the way for the fullest effect.

 

Thanks for the replies guys...

 

where did you order them from?

 

the only place to order the mccord power plate is from mccord.

http://www.mccordcg.com

 

wrong link try this one http://www.mccordcg.com/mpp/mpp.htm

 

Thanks for the correction on that.

 

so is it half or all the way open all the way closed. or can you vary it.

 

you can have it closed....shut..or anywhere in between....it's alot of fun

 

Would any one be interested in a group purchase, on these i know i would be in for two, if other people are , does any one know how to get one started?

 

email McCord....I'm sure they can set TGO up with a group purchase....

 

check out www.quicktimeperformance.com for there QTEC, i bought it and picked it up locally with them. Its a real nice peice and they are good people

 

i would be up for a GP...let me know when so I can try to save the money for it.

 

im up for a GP definantly, ive been wanting an electric cutout for ever, just dont want to spend the full amount for one

 

do yall really run it inbetween open and closed? Mine just sounds like a big exhaust leak when it's only cracked open.

Sounds wicked with it wide open though, I have mine right after my headers I do get a slight leak with it all the way closed. Has anyone tried to fix this? I hear it's a common "problem".

Honestly though, if you don't have a little more aggressive cam, I don't think it would sound good (at idle anyway).

I love mine, I got mine with the group purchase a while back, from the McCord link.

 

never had any problems with mine...I do oil it up every once in awhile though. When I run mine...I usually run it wide open.....loud as hell....sounds like a NASCAR...especially with headers ....just better forget about listening to the stereo when the power plate is open!

 

or talking especialy on the free way.

 

so do thet have exhaust leaks

 

yes.

 

how do we get em installed...locall muffler shop will do it?or i got to know someone who can weld them up...i mean how does that work?....oh and im up for a GP

 

so how many others get exhasut leaks

 

I have an exhaust shop weld my cutout in....but I actually installed the McCord Power Plate...it was very easy to do....just ground it, and run the power to the fuse box or some other power source. Depending on where you have your cutout installed...I just took my passenger seats out (front and back) ran the wiring harness under the carpet, took out the plug in the back floor board under the passenger seat, and ran the wires that way..it was easy....guess it just depends on how well you know your car.

Mine doesn't leak at all....maybe if you got underneath the car...and put your ear up to it..you might hear a little something...but nothing major here.....

 

count me in on the GP

 

thnx 84 custom....my concern was who can weld up the cut outs to the pipes...the reason i asked is cuz i know the shops wont do the str8 pipes on the car (illegal) unless its someone you know... but since you said the exhost shop did it on your car then i shouldnt worry about it

 

keep in mind he lives in another state and their laws maybe different.

 

good point there TraviZ...I guess i got to look around...thnx

 

yeah, here in Indiana, we have emission laws...but they are not enforced, exhausts are not checked or anything. I guess a cop could pull you over and look under the car though. I know a few people at a few shops that will do that kind of stuff for me...I had my dual cats cut off too...no restiction at all...I just hope the laws don't get enforced!...but if they do...that's why I bought the Edelcbrock TES headers with air tubes...

 

why did you have your dual cats cut off if you have the cut outs? or that was before the cut outs...

 

so wheres the group buy on cut outs?

 

when I bought my car...my dad and I drove it up from Chicago..and on the way home...the cat's blew out..sounded like crap...so instead of having them replaced...I just had the exhaust shop weld straight pipe in place of them. My cutout is placed in my "I" pipe, under the passenger side back seat...

 

count me in for the gp i think 6 or so. if u guys dont do it i will start it

 

which company would u be going through?

no matter what though, im in on this

 

the cheaper better of the 2

 

well jocww, u better start emailing some companies

 

ill do the mc

 

I'd be up for it if I can convice my dad about the problems with a cutout leaking.

Anyone have more info on cutouts leaking?

 

as for mine...if I just stand by my car...I can't hear any leaking at all. Now...if I get underneath, close to the cutout..I can hear it...just barely though. I'm very picky about things like that...but this dosen't bother me at all....

 

I like the design of the qtec better

 

that's cool....but why? I've heard Qtech and McCord are about the best ones out there. They have a good warrenty and are both made out of good material

 

how much is q tec

 

wheres the GP?

 

The Qtec is around 150 without the cutout.

QTEC

Cutouts QTEC

 

q tec is way more than what im planning on spending. when i start the gp im going to do the mccord

 

thats cool. hurry! lol

 

when it gets started...hopefully i have the money b/c i really want them

 

count me in too!

 

I have the qtec, it's pretty cool. There is a slight exhaust leak. But if I hold the switch in the closed position it stops, then I release and it comes back. Not that much, it doesn't really bother me. It is definately one of the coolest things you can buy.

 

count me in on the GP, Ive got an awsome exhaust guy that would weld it in for me and Im getting my tax return real soon. 3" please.

 

i setup a GP with mccord last year. if ya'll want to do another, everyone interested that HAS THE MONEY NOW pm me, and i'll get the ball rolling, then everyone else that wants to jump in, can.
