Re: crazy idea (cutout)

i was going to try a cutout with a vacuum motor , spring loaded open.... at idle vacuum pulls it closed,under heavy load vacuum drops and cutout opens.

Its a good idea in theory but the E-Cutouts don't open instantly when you hit the button and the motor doesnt stop turning when it gets fully open, meaning that if you went WOT, it would open slowly then just burn the motor until you pulled off.
