Re: no brand elec cutout

truthfully, they all tend to break sooner or later. At least if you spend an extra few bucks on a DMH or something, you know it will be warrantyed. Do you think this guy is going to replace yours when it burns out in 6 months?

Looks like they call it a 3 inch and use a 2.5 inch E-cutout with a 3 inch pipe reduced to fit it.

Re: no brand elec cutout

I had a name brand one, butterfly leaked after a while, then broke the motor portion off on a hard launch (my fault, hit bottom of car) - now I uncap/cap mine manually. Was fun though. Get one with the best warranty.

Re: no brand elec cutout

Look at the picture, see the reducer (little piece of exhaust pipe) they reduce the 3 inch cutout (on the car) to a 2.5 (for the e-cutout) with that. The E-cutout is a 2.5 inch.

Re: no brand elec cutout

I wouldn't buy it, ya get what you pay for. Personally, I'd save the money and just get or keep the manual cutout.

He's a Vendor here I believe, so you may be able to get it a little cheaper then the website lists, just post in the GP section.

Re: no brand elec cutout

I just purchased one from him.

in the video it shows liquids leaking from the cutout even though its closed...I hope that was an isolated incident.


I will let you guys know how it works when it gets in

Ive had a DMH on my car for a year and a half now and I can assure you that youll be very happy with it. Ive never had any problems with mine and I probably use it 6 times every time i drive my car.
