Switchable Exhaust
Looking to replace my non switchable y-pipes (Q&Q II) with a silent choice type setup and would appreciate any guidance/experience you guys have:
Looks like I have 3 choices; Corsa Q&Q + (electric solenoids, on/off), IMCO Sound Advantage (electric jack screw, variable positions) or Hardin Sound Selection (air operated).
I'm assuming all have pros/cons; what are they and which would be the most logical system for my SBC powered boat?

Yes, I'm aware of that. Since the vast majority of our boating is in KY which allows them I'm ready to pull the trigger, just don't know which system to go with.

I'm looking at this set, much cheaper than corsa, but I can't find reviews

i bought some of the ebay ones. they are pretty light weight material and I was missing a part off of one. They never did replace it. For the price they will work for me for the project I bought them for. I bought 3 sets for me and a buddy and paid $300 each I think. I would probably spend more $ and get a name brand next time.

Corsa seems to have much of that market, I'm just not crazy about the solenoids sitting there pulling juice all the time. The Hardin system looks similar to what Mercruiser used to use. The downside there is complexity; the pump and all that plumbing looks to be a problem waiting to happen. That leaves me with the IMCO system which I've never seen but I like the idea of a jackscrew setup where they're only drawing juice when moving.
What to do, what to do.....
