Default Using Raceland Cutout In Winter?

So I have a raceland cutout coming in on friday and putting it on that night but woundering how it will perform in winter. My last cutout on my jeep the motor of the cut out frooze when it got cold out and i had to buy a new one. it just stopped wokring. That one was a quick time preforance one. I know that sliverbullet has one and his video conviced me to buy one but where he lives it doesn't get as cold as it does here. I was going to wait intill spring to put it on but I cant wait lol. What do you guys think. Thanks

From using mine in the winter I would think you will be fine. It gets pretty cold here and there have never been any issues.

Well thats nice to hear. I cant wait till mine is on friday night. It the sound really loud with the cut out open silver and teach. My inline 6 jeep was really loud with one but videos of dodge ram with them doesnt really catch the sound that good cause it distorts. Thanks

ya Thats true but last winter My jeep sat for a few days and that was what caused it to freeze. I use my ram everyday but I wont be using the cut out everyday . I would think keeping it open all the time, I woud lose lots of gas lol. Thats not good. I waste gas like crazy now and I dont even have it on yet.
