Electric cut out( QTec) for LS1

I went to QTEC web site and i saw it.
I have some questions to ask:

How much it will cost to buy it and install it, (in Vancouver)?

Where can i get good deal in Vancouver and which shop do i go?
Do i need to replace catalyte converter to install it?

What happend to warranty after install the electric cut out?

Do they work fine for long period time?, any problem?

Do they works on STock exhaust system(01 WS6)?

how many Qtec do i have buy (one or two) i red that dual exhaust sytem need two, i'm not sure mine.

Any hp gain?

Thank you for taking time to read and answer.
PS: Depends on the price and warranty, QTEC will be the first mod on WS6.

u do realize that all that is, is a normal cutout with an electric plate bolted to it, instead of a plate with wingnuts.

its just so u don't have to unbolt them by hand, and u can do it on the fly with these... i know ppl that have broken them though.

i would just do it ur self... very easy to install. doubt u will get a warrenty from a shop on intall... but maybe a factory warrenty but i doubt it

just get a cutout and get the electric plate if you want it, take it to a shop to get the cutout welded in, ~30 bucks....i think... ur cutout will cost you the same, and ifyou want an electric plate you can do it later or at the same time but i cant imagine it being too hard to install

I'm gonna get an electric cutout, they work fairly well, just don't put them too close to the engine cuz it gets kinda hot in there, either way a shop will charge around 30 bucks canadian to install, it is definetly a sweet mod

Going from memory, the electric one for my Borla was $195 USD plus tax and shipping. from DMH Performance. I have had a few small problems with it, the set screws fell out, but I fixed it easily enough.

I got my DMH electric cutout for $199 shipped, including the cutout itself. 3-year warranty on the motor as well. In my 2 years with it, I had no problems at all...but the guy who I gave it to had the motor fall off on the highway. It IS being replaced under warranty though .
