Anyone running electronic cutouts?

I was wondering if anyone is running electronic cutouts? Kind of the best of both worlds. Reduced lag with a race car sound when you want it or quiet as stock when you don't. Here is a pic for those that have never seen one.

Ken,

How are you. I still would like to give you a shout about RFID's These holidays have just sucked my time away. Your exhaust is not electronic though right? How does it work?

My shop has installed tons of these, now the exhausts are sitting at the shop unused because the owners were sick of the valves seizing up from all of the heat!

Its a cool idea/mod without a doubt, but you also have all of the weight of the stock exhaust too

Yes the heat would be a real issue. Any other ideas?
