Looking to get a 3" e-cutout to put after the cat. After reading up, it seems like the top 3 companies are QTP, DHM, and Raceland.

What brand would you recommend and why?

Also, is everyone going single or dual cutouts?

I haven't committed to buying one but I was planning to go with Doug's headers. Like the design a little better and reviews seem to be pretty good.

And you want a single 3" if your exhaust is stock.

I just had to rebuild my QTPs after 2 years, luckily they sell a butterfly rebuild kit for a decent price. They started not sealing after 2 years of abuse at higher than average air flow, luckily they never rattled just leaked; lost one butterfly valve driving down the road one day after it sheared the 2 small allen bolts holding the butterfly in place. Rebuilt and back at it, love my QTPs.

I ended up nabbing two BNIB Summit e-cutouts off of CL for $110. Came with two y pipes, two e-motors, and two turndowns. Had one installed this morining, and will be putting the y pipe and turndown in the classifieds shortly. Gonna hold on to the second motor just in case the first one fails. Love the sound!

Thx guys
