lol!!
Seems the keys to success with that are i) have a tight TB in the first place, some of those ford ones are leaky horrible pieces in the intended app, so start with a sucky one and you'll be unhappy and ii) remove any plastic bits, i.e. bushings and replace them with brass or similar.

DMB all the way.
who needs a cutout, just drop the damn exhaust from the downpipe!!! my whole exhaust comes off in 4 bolts and 10 minutes (its over axle 3" with muffler too)
If you had one on your car, you would understand why.
10 mins, are you on glue? So you you've just driven 40 km's, waited in line, its stinking hot and your going to mess with dropping the exhaust while getting ready for tech and trying not to miss the first race? No thanks.
Exactly,If you had one on your car, you would understand why.
While I figure out what to do, I made a plate and will weld the bolts onto the back side so I can remove the plate when I jack it up for the slicks.
I'll check it out but me thinks going to have to rob a bank, lol.DMB all the way.

Summit Racing has their own brand, haven't heard anyone using one yet.
I welded a header extension to my SRT-4 downpipe and made a cover for it.
Obviously I have to wait a few minutes to remove the cover when I get to the track
but it's not that bad.
I had to take 2 2x6's like 12" long and screw them together so I could drive the drivers side wheel
on so I could fit underneath to remove the cover.
The more I think about it, it sure would be nice to just flip a switch.
It was, I'd go thru tech all quiet, then after we get called, I'd open it up so I was noisey in the staging lanes, then after the run, close it a bit so my teeth don't rattle,Summit Racing has their own brand, haven't heard anyone using one yet.

Just checked out the DMH site, they are very reasonable, but I need to sell some stuff before I can buy one.

What, does everything I do = $$!? Haha! And I just realized I said DMB... that's a band, sorry.
Yeah, the DMH stuff is super nice quality, and the guy stands up behind is warranty all the way. That's hard to argue with.
Why not a cable actuated one designed like the electric ones. Wouldn't take much to pick up a fried used one and make a bracket.

I personally use a BadlanzHPE cut out. The wires were too thing and kept breaking so I changed those but it has otherwise been good. I bent the plate a few times from some backfires so I just replaced that but I can't really blame that on the quality of the part.
