Default st affordable cutouts?

I need some electric cutouts for the ss and I was wondering what are the best ones? Meaning that they don't leak at all. A buddy of mine has one and it just leaks and is quite annoying. So what have you guys found to be the most leak free ones?

DMH cutouts are hard to beat. QTP is cheaper but many users report them rattling, leaking, breaking or failing to open. If you want big money, Doug's Headers are probably better than DMH.

DMH I have seen mentioned on quite a few forums and a lot on here. It will be what I choose when I go that route.

Mr gasket

I've made some before but never electric
It's damn tough to get them to seal perfectly

What muffler are you running?

It has the stock dual in dual out muffler right now but ill probly go with a magnaflow. I've always liked them the best. Not sure yet if I will go with duals all the way back or keep the tailpipe and tip the way they are, cuz honestly I kind of like it

The reason I asked is because I haven't seen any that are completely silent with the stock muffler

I'm just running cats and its quieter than when I had the flowmaster 40 or the glasspack on there

Ya I also figured that with stock exhaust you would be able to hear something

I've never seen a cutout that actually sealed "completely". There's gonna be a small leak.
